Quiero Club (Spanish for "I want club") is an experimental pop indie band from Monterrey, Mexico.
Since they took the music scene by surprise in 2004, Priscila González, Gustavo "Cátsup" Hernández, Marcela Viejo, Luis Fara and Boscop Benavente made the core members of what the band achieved musically and historically by playing at the most important venues and festivals in Mexico, Peru, Colombia, Argentina and Spain.
"Minutos de Aire" a song they wrote along with the legendary singer Jorge González (from Chile's Los Prisioneros) was awarded # 1 song of the year on Mexico City's Reactor 105.7 in 2009. Their LP "El Techo es el Suelo" gave them the Mexico's IndieO Music AwardS 2014 Feather for "Best Electronic Album" and a 2013 Latin Grammy nomination for “Best art/package”.
Quiero Club has scored music for Mexican films like “Rudo y Cursi”, "Efectos Secundarios", "Casi Divas", "Abolicion de la Propiedad", "Maria en el Pais de Maria" and "The Alien and Me", as well as international series and films such as "The L Word" and "Que Viva la Musica".
After releasing the singles "Oportunidad de Oro" and "Millones" Quiero Club were one of the most representative and innovative bands within the Latin American independent music movement.
