The Latin Brothers

Salsa band from Colombia, established in the early 1970s. The Latin Brothers is Colombian salsa group. It is currently led by Rafael Benitez, who is the group's timbales. The Latin Brothers were created in 1974, as a sister act to Fruko y sus Tesos on the Discos Fuentes label. Among their most famous songs is "Las Caleñas son como las flores," which has become an anthem of sorts for the city of Cali, Colombia. The song was featured on the soundtrack of the video game Scarface: The World Is Yours and has been cited by British-born, Colombia-based funk artist Quantic as an inspiration. Might appear as "Los Latin Brothers"
