A decade of music: In the mid nineties a group of friends formed Fauna Crepuscular. In it´s early years, the band played Caracas underground club and party scene, covering various styles and rythms, ranging from ska, to reggae and rock. After recording for various compilation albums, the band played in the most important music festivals in Caracas, such as Music in the Park, before 50 thousand people, and the Red Experience, before 120 thousand spectators. In 2000, the band released its first record El primero siempre es r..pido (The first is always fast), from which four singles reached the top of the record report charts in Venezuela. To promote the album, the band toured extensively within Venezuela sharing the stage with some of the most important acts in Latin America, such as Illya Kuriaky and the Valderramas, Aterciopelados, Los Tres, Los Pericos, Hombres G, Los Amigos Invisibles, Juanes, King Chango, La Mosca Tse Tse, Caramelos de Cianuro, Genitallica, Desorden Publico, Guaco and Molotov. The band´s second album titled Camina (Walk) was released in 2004 and represented an important musical evolution for the band, which shifted towards a more distinctive sound, based on a more distorted, rock-based style. This record lead the band to another national tour, this time sponsored by well established brands, such as Pepsi. Camina won Fauna international recognition, and was chosen by Rolling Stone magazine as one of the best 50 records of the year. In addition, it won the best album of the year in the Urbe Awards (the most important music awards ceremony in Venezuela) In 2006, the band released its third album titled Fauna, produced by Erik Aldrey, a venezuelan sound engineer base din London, who also produced the bands first record. For this album, the band decided to change its image and reduce their name to simply Fauna. Fauna is now hard at work promoting its latest record, preparing their new tour and focusing on reaching international markets
