History

Before forming a duo, Chino and Nacho were both part of the Venezuelan merengue boy band Calle Ciega alongside Luifer, Gabo Marquez and Emilio Vizcaino where they started their musical careers. They released five albums, with the hit single, "Mi Cachorrita" on Una Vez Más. Calle Ciega gained significant airplay in Venezuela and surrounding countries. The group fought for having more publicity than other Venezuelan groups like 3 Dueños.
Calle Ciega employed various musical genres, though most reggaeton, and liked to mix salsa and merengue with reggaeton. The group later stopped releasing singles, and eventually broke up into what is now Chino & Nacho and Los Cadilacs. Chino & Nacho debuted their first album nationwide in 2008, circulating in Venezuela and neighboring countries.
