Known for their heartfelt lyrics, traditional instrumentation, and loyal fan base, the band has become one of the most respected names in regional Mexican music. Their style—driven by accordion, bajo sexto, and powerful vocals—delivers stories of love, heartbreak, and everyday life with unmatched sincerity.\n\n“Belleza de Cantina,” released in 2002 on the album Por las Damas, is one of the group’s most iconic songs. The track was written by Flor Yvone Quezada, who reportedly came up with the lyrics in the middle of a dance event, inspired by a moment of reflection and emotion. The title translates to “Beauty of the Barroom,” and the song tells the story of a past lover whose beauty still lingers in memory.\n\nDespite the nostalgic pull, the narrator expresses gratitude for the woman who now stands by his side—highlighting the emotional growth that comes from choosing true love over illusion. With its poignant message and classic norteño rhythm, “Belleza de Cantina” captures the bittersweet balance between remembering the past and appreciating the present.", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }, { "id": 3541805, "uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/plays/3541805/?format=api", "airdate": "2025-08-18T21:54:57-07:00", "show": 64326, "show_uri": "https://api.kexp.org/v2/shows/64326/?format=api", "image_uri": "", "thumbnail_uri": "", "song": "No Se Puede Comprar", "track_id": null, "recording_id": null, "artist": "Fuun", "artist_ids": [ "7a5a051c-4b8e-4970-aa2f-ff7ec90666f3" ], "album": null, "release_id": null, "release_group_id": null, "labels": [], "label_ids": [], "release_date": null, "rotation_status": null, "is_local": false, "is_request": false, "is_live": false, "comment": "“No Se Puede Comprar” (“It Cannot Be Bought”) is an urgent punk song critiquing consumer culture.
