Zalvia Zalvia

About

Zalvia is an alternative rock/folk rock band from Mexico City, Mexico, formed in 2008 by friends Antonio Torres (lead vocals, guitars), Yonatán Barrueta (guitars), Miguel Rincón (drums), Omar Mundo (bass) and Marco Antonio Villanueva (saxophone). The name is a variation of Salvia divinorum. They are well known in their country for their contemporary rock sounds, based on the 1970s sounds from bands like The Doors, and also including sounds from their folk roots. One year later, Zalvia's line-up changed, keeping Antonio Torres and Yonatán Barrueta as the only constant members and adding Roberto "Rober" Serrano (bass), Mariana Inés López (percussion), Fernando Torres (saxophone), Luis "Lucho" Garay (trumpet), Victor Osorio (keyboards), and Luis Alvarado (drums).
