A favorite during the 1990s banda craze, Banda Maguey took over the radio waves with their debut album Tumbando Caña in 1993, which contained a number of hits including "El Alacran" a cover originally sung by La Sonora Matancera.

The band originated in the same Jalisco region as Banda Machos, and was led by Ernesto Solano, who has also composed a number of their songs, including Pero te amo, a hit from their third album, El Mundo gira.
