Enjambre is a Mexican indie rock band. It is composed of brothers Luis Humberto (lead vocals), Rafael (bass), and Julián Navejas (keyboards, guitar), their cousin Isaac Navejas (guitar), and ÃÂngel Sánchez (drums). Enjambre started in Fresnillo, Zacatecas, consolidated as a group in Santa Ana, California, and later continued developing in Fresnillo, Zacatecas, starting professional recordings in 2005.
In 1994, Luis Humberto, Rafael, and César Sánchez created a group called Los Cuatro Fantásticos in Fresnillo. Years later, after emigrating to the United States, they had to abandon the project, but once settled in California, they formed Enjambre in 2001 alongside their cousin Romeo Navejas. However, he would remain in the band for just over a year. The name Enjambre (which means "swarm") refers to a group of bees and is derived from the membersâ surname: Navejas.
They have recorded eight studio albums and they also have two EPs: AmbrosÃÂa (2021) and Torna noches de salón (2024). Among their most popular songs are: âÂÂVida en el espejo,â âÂÂDulce soledad,â âÂÂVisita,â âÂÂTercer tipo,â âÂÂManÃÂa cardÃÂaca,â âÂÂSomos ajenos,â âÂÂElemento,â âÂÂDivergencia,â âÂÂCámara de faltas,â âÂÂSábado perpetuo,â and âÂÂImpacto.â Albums like Daltónico and Proaño were certified double gold and double platinum, respectively, while Los huéspedes del orbe received a platinum certification from the Mexican Association of Producers of Phonograms and Videograms (AMPROFON).
