The tours did especially well on the West and East coasts and in Chicago. The tours were in Spanish and targeted a Spanish-speaking audience, so most of the promotional materials were in Spanish and most of the audiences were Spanish-speaking. These tours took place during a wave of interest in Latin music among Americans of all ethnic groups. Solis's Solo CareerĪfter Los Bukis, Marco Antonio Solis went solo, toured with Ana Gabriel and Joan Sebastien, and then joined Marc Anthony and Laura Pausini on the Juntos en Concierto tours. The remaining members of the band called themselves 'Los Mismos,' which means 'the same,' indicating that the band had 'the same members as Los Bukis.' The band continued to record and perform prolifically, and was a big favorite of Spanish speakers, particularly those from Mexico. In 1995 Solis left Los Bukis, and although he initially called himself 'El Buki,' he and the other former members of the band agreed that none of them would use the 'Los Bukis' name in the future. An early song, 'Falso Amor,' sold a million copies in its first year. Solis and his cousin added Eusebio Cortez on bass, Jose Guadarrama on percussion and saxophone, and Pedro Sanchez on drums and the band, whose name means 'the kids' in the local dialect, was formed in 1975. He knew he wanted a career as a composer and singer, and dedicated himself to that goal. They were only teenagers, but Solis's songs already had the emotional quality that would mark his style throughout his career.

In the early 1970s Los Bukis founder Marco Antonio Solis often got together with his cousin, Joel Solis, to improvise on a wide collection of instruments.

The regional Mexican band Los Bukis began in the town of Ario de Rosales, in the state of Michoacan in Mexico.
