They are ten-year-old, Angie, the vocalist, and her brothers Gustavo, on drums, and Abelardo, on guitar and piano.The video has become a worldwide sensation.
In one newscast in Spain, the anchor introduces the video by saying that “this ten-year-old’s voice could tame wild beasts.”

Working on it, turns out I have a connection to their dad, the producer, through LinkedIn. Their dad is Abelardo Vázquez.

Baja California/Mexicali-based rock group Nikki Clan had barely formed when they were met with enormous industry success in 2006. Bandmembers Alberto Espinoza (bass), José Antonio Dabdoub (guitar), Ángel Vázquez (guitar), and José Carlos Fausto Monroy (drums) had been performing under the name Los Piltrafas when they were contacted by producer Abelardo Vázquez; a veteran of Mexican rock staples like Reik, he possessed both the connections and vision necessary to take the group to international acclaim. With a vision for developing the group's raw, natural sound into something more marketable, Abelardo Vázquez introduced Los Piltrafas to vocalist Yadira Gianola. The young musicians felt an instant chemistry, and Nikki Clan were born. By April of the year, the group began working on original material for a demo, under Vázquez's guidance. A few short months later Nikki Clan presented the songs "Mírame" and "Dimelo a Mí" to execs at Sony BMG. By the end of 2005 Nikki Clan were offered a five-album deal, and set to work on their debut record. The band's self-titled record, Nikki Clan, was released in 2006 to rave reviews. The album was carried to number ten on the Mexican pop charts on the strength of the hit single "Mírame."

That was a "dubbed over" version of the song to make it sound real good.

Here is the real version of the song by the band without any computer generation assistance.

Well, almost 3 million views on youtube later, looks like Tommy Mottola the former head of Sony Music has signed them with Universal. The band was in San Diego this week in the recording studio. Might be a while before they will get to Penasco but we'll see.
