Los Fancy-Free are from Mexico City. Frontman Martin Thulin - aka Menonita Rock – was born in the State of Chihuahua, Northern Mexico in a Scandinavian Mennonite community called Nueva Escandinavia.
Mennonites are like Amish People. They live isolated from the rest of the society with their own rules and traditions. They are not allowed to work regular jobs. Instead they sell the goods they produce themselves as farmers. That’s why you can find these natural blonde Mexicans selling cheese on the streets in Mexico City. His parents were Mennonite hippies, who felt that the community were a little to small for their ideas, so they moved to Sweden and took the little child Martin with them.
Growing up in Sweden has been important to Martin and Los Fancy-Free’s music, as punk and electro pop were at it’s peak when he was a kid.
“This album has been a bit like revisiting my childhood, mixing music styles that back then were impossible to mix. You either listened to electro or punk, not both. But I did, so when I were hanging out with my punk rocking friends I had to hide away my Gary Numan, Soft Cell, Human League, Depeche Mode, Fad Gadget and Bowie records”, says Martin.
Martin moved back to Mexico after high school and has lived in Mexico City for about ten years now.

Cuando me compré el never green vol. 1 y ví el número de tracks que traía pensé: "chale, esto es una tomada de pelo", pero cuando lo escuché completo, y me di cuenta que esas poquitas canciones valen por las 20 que generalmente traen otros discos llenos de paja. en resument: está bien chido.
