Biography

Formed in Mexico in 1969, Grupo Yndio made a name for themselves in the 70s by playing Spanish covers of famous romantic ballads in their traditional Grupero style. Born from the ashes of the band Los Pulpos, the group's lineup was originally composed of vocalist René Sotelo, keyboardist Ernesto Pablos, guitarist Pepe Liera, bassist Eduardo Orduño, and drummer Margarito "el Mago," who was replaced by Genaro "Tilico" Solís right after the release of their studio debut Sin Tu Amor in 1972. In 1973, their cover of "Él" by Los Strwck stayed atop the Mexican charts for four weeks. Over the following decades, Yndio released over a dozen albums for Polygram and scored numerous Top 10 hits with Norteño-tinged cover versions of Dave Maclean's "We Said Goodbye" (1975's "¿Por Qué Nos Dijimos Adiós?"), ELO's "Telephone Line" (1977's "Línea Telefónica"), Nazareth's "Love Hurts" (1978's "Herida de Amor"), and The Righteous Brothers' "Unchained Melody" (1991's "Melodía Desencadenada"). Even though their output waned during the 2000s and 2010s—they were dropped by their label and mostly stuck to the single format—Yndio remains one of the most beloved Regional Mexican groups of their generation. In 2016, drummer Genaro Solís passed away and his spot was filled by his son, Homero Solís.
