Featuring stellar performances from Los Inmortales and Sera Cero, two Houston local latin rock bands. They filled up a packed venue at Rise Rooftop. The atmosphere was electric as fans eagerly awaited renditions of their favorite iconic hits.

Los Inmortales kicked off the afternoon with a heartfelt tribute to Héroes del Silencio. Their rendition of “Entre Dos Tierras” was nothing short of spectacular, capturing the raw emotion and power of the original. The lead vocalist, Ivan Oropeza wavering an uncanny resemblance to Enrique Bunbury‘s voice, and the crowd sang along passionately and let loose to the bands amazing tribute. Their performance of “Maldito Duende” was another highlight, with blistering lead guitar by Randall, followed by rhythmic guitar played both by Javier Castillo and Ivan Cortez. The tribute band consists of 6 members. The lead singer Ivan Oropeza, Ivan Cortez (rhythmic guitar), Jesus Martinez (Drummer), Randall (Lead Guitar), Javier Castillo (rhythmic guitar) and Jorge Rock (Bass).

Sera Cero followed with a tribute to the legendary Soda Stereo. From the first notes of “De Música Ligera” it was clear that they had mastered the essence of the Argentine rock giants. The band’s tight instrumentation and the lead singer’s, Tony Ascanio’s striking vocal delivery transported the audience back to Soda Stereo‘s glory days. With the help of David Elbert, keys, and Diego Fernandez, guitar, “Persiana Americana” and “En la Ciudad de la Furia” were standout moments, with the crowd dancing and singing along in a euphoric tribute to Gustavo Cerati and his bandmates.

The show was a seamless blend of nostalgia and reverence, with both bands delivering performances that honored their influences while adding their unique flair. It was a night to remember for fans of Latin rock, proving once again the timeless appeal and enduring legacy of these musical giants.
