They are loved and beloved by music fans throughout the world, a group that has no bounderies.
It has been six years since the group released their last new studio album and much to the happiness of millions of Gran Combo fans, the long wait is over. Their new album, "Alunizando" "Moon Landing"- a name that came about in conversations when they realized that the only place they have not performed and sold out in their Hall of Fame career is the moon. This new 9 track masterpiece has had 4 hit singles already on radio rotation and remains un-available to purchase on any platform. The singles "Tiene Que haber de to", "Soy tu amigo", "Sacame el Zapato" and now "Mi Isla" are Gran Combo at their very best.
