Los Larks

Los Larks were a Chilean rock and beat band formed in Santiago in 1966, known for their distinctive look of wearing wigs instead of growing long hair, which set them apart at the time. Though their career was brief, disbanding in 1968, they made a notable impact as one of the first Chilean rock groups to gain significant local popularity. Their 1966 album *A Go-Go* is a standout example of their style, featuring energetic covers and original tracks that showed influences from British Invasion bands, combined with a raw, dynamic sound that captured the spirit of 1960s rock.

Their remastered albums *Sound GO GO* and *A GO GO* were re-released in 2021, underscoring the lasting interest in their music decades later. Los Larks’ music showcases an interesting mix of upbeat rock ‘n’ roll and beat music with some playful pronunciation of English lyrics, a common trait among non-English-speaking rock bands of the era, which adds a unique charm to their recordings.
