Kenny y los Eléctricos

Kenny y los Eléctricos is a rock band founded in 1980 by the singer and band leader Kenny Aviles, who has been called "the mother of Mexican rock".

The band started in Los Angeles, where they made their first public appearances under the name Kenny and The Electrics, playing in venues like Whisky a Go Go. They moved back to Mexico in 1980 and went on to be considered an internationally important Mexican rock band,

emblematic of Mexican rock in the 1980s.

Aviles has been called the Mexican Pat Benatar and one of the most-important women in Mexican rock.

Throughout its history, the lineup of the band continuously changed. In 1990, the band broke-up completely, leaving Aviles as a solo act. A new band called Kenny y los Nuevos Eléctricos formed in 1995. The band took back its original name in 2000.
