Volován is a rock band that hails from Monterrey, Nuevo León, Mexico, formed in 1998. Named after a type of butterfly, the group quickly made its mark on the Latin music scene with an appealing blend of pop and rock influences. Over the years, Volován's music has showcased a penchant for heartfelt and often relatable lyrics, complemented by engaging melodies that straddle the line between contemporary pop sensibilities and rock's raw energy.

The band garnered widespread recognition after the release of their self-titled debut album in 2002, which included hits like "Ella es azul" and "Monitor," the latter becoming an anthem for romantic despair among their fanbase. Volován's lineup has historically included founding members Chalo Galván on guitar and vocals, and Gerardo "Jerry" Vela on the bass, accompanied by other musicians contributing to drums and additional guitars over different periods. The band continued to build on its success, exploring various themes and musical styles through their subsequent releases.

Their tenacity and ability to evolve are exemplified in their more recent work, such as the songs "Desaparece" and "El Día Que Puedas," both showcasing the band's matured sound and storytelling. While individual tracks like "Gavilán o Paloma" and "Ántrax (Demo)" reflect the band's ongoing creative journey, perhaps it is their commitment to lyrical authenticity and melodic creativity that has sustained Volován's presence on the Latin rock stage for over two decades.
