Memphis, United States (2001 – present)

There are two artists known as Lucero, an alt-country band from the U.S., and a pop-regional female singer from Mexico.

1) Lucero is a alt-country band formed in Memphis, USA in 2001. Formed by vocalist/guitarist Ben Nichols and guitarist Brian Venable, the band has released seven albums and played between 100-200 shows a year since their start.

Traditionally delivering well-written, rock and twang with a sound familiar to fans of Jason and the Scorchers and Slobberbone, their recent album 1372 Overton Park heavily featured horn arrangements. This gave the album a classic r&b feel.

2) Lucero (born Lucero Hogaza León on August 29, 1969 in Mexico City), is an actress and singer. She started her career at the age of 10 as Lucerito. She is married to singer Manuel Mijares with whom she has two children. Her mother, actress and producer Lucero León, is her manager.

At the age of ten, Lucero started her career as Lucerito in the children’s television series Alegrías Del Mediodía and Chiquilladas, where she starred alongside artist Pilar Montenegro. Later, she would share the spotlight with international artist Thalía in the singing competition Jueguemos A Cantar. One of her more popular roles was in a Popeye skit as Olive Oyl.

So the hot chick's pics flashing with the alt.dot band's music on the last.fm player is quite surreal. Kinda like it.

@Echeagaray: Pobre y joto eres tu, que no debe ni tener comida en el playo, pero sale por la calle con su iPod falso cantando canciones en inglés que ni entiende la letra... Voy a la verga si, pero estoy esperando que tu papá desocupe mi macho!

I love "1372 Overton Park", 'cause when I listen to it, it makes me want to live, while their previous efforts were really fucking depressing. And I don't mean bad. I mean really sad.

Just got 1372. Listened to Smoke and thought, "I'd like this more if it didn't have horns. It's not suiting to Lucero." Mind you, I'm not biased regarding horns, after being in a ska band and all, but it didn't feel like Lucero. What Are You Willing to Lose changed my opinion. Lucero + horns = still amazing.
