Las Pelotas is an iconic Argentine rock band, significant for its contributions to the Latin American music scene since its formation. The band initially came together in 1988, following the dissolution of Sumo, a seminal group in the Argentine rock movement, after the death of its leader, Luca Prodan. Among its founding members, the German-Argentine musician Alejandro Sokol and bassist Germán Daffunchio were key figures, both previously part of Sumo. Las Pelotas has navigated through the changing landscapes of Argentine rock with a resilient and evolving sound that blends rock, reggae, and other genres, establishing a unique and enduring presence in the music industry.

Over the years, Las Pelotas has amassed a significant discography, marked by both studio albums and live recordings that showcase the band's dynamic range and emotional depth. Their work transcends the conventional boundaries of rock, embedding deeper social and personal commentaries within their lyrics. The band's recent releases, including "Solito Vas (En Vivo Movistar Arena)," a series of intimate 'En Casa' sessions highlighting tracks like "Víctimas del Cielo" and "Bombachitas Rosas," and singles such as "Es Así" and "Dando Vueltas," continue to exhibit their adaptability and resonate with both new and longstanding fans. Known for their compelling live performances, Las Pelotas remains a pivotal force in Latin American music, captivating audiences with their enduring passion and innovative spirit.
