Valiantes

**Valiantes** are a high-energy rock trio hailing from Mexico City, blending garage rock grit with surf-punk swagger since their formation in 2012. Comprising Diego Solórzano (vocals/guitar), Javier Reyes (bass), and Emilio Treviño (drums), the band cut their teeth playing DIY venues before dropping their self-titled debut album in 2015. Known for their raw, nostalgic sound and lyrics that oscillate between rebel anthems and late-night introspection, they’ve built a loyal following across Latin America with relentless touring and a throwback aesthetic that nods to vintage rock ‘n’ roll.

Recent singles like “Now and Always” (2020) and “Wasting Time” (2022) showcase their signature blend of reverb-drenched riffs and propulsive rhythms, cementing their reputation as festival favorites. Whether they’re channeling surf-rock vibes or punk urgency, Valiantes keep their live shows explosive, sweaty, and unapologetically fun—a testament to their DIY roots and love for keeping rock alive.
