Mr. Loco, also known as Mister Loco or Mr. Loco Band, is a Mexican band started during the mid-1970s, singing mostly in English, though occasionally in Spanish. Several of their songs as RELIGIOUS MAN (I am, I am) and BUBBLE GUM were used in the soundtrack of the movie NACHO LIBRE.In 2006, the band got a new revival, thanks to movie-director Jared Hess, who is a good friend of Beck. Beck helped out Jared with the soundtrack to his movie Nacho Libre, starring Jack Black. And as he owned their album, (even knew the members of the band), he saw that it perfectly fit to use their music with the film. He used 'RELIGIOUS MAN (I am I am)' as the title song in it, and also 'BUBBLE GUM', 'MR. LOCO' & 'PAPAS' in the rest of the film.Mr Loco GRAND PRIX WINNER IN THE WORLD POPULAR SONG FESTIVAL IN TOKYO '75HIGHLIGHT CONCERT IN OSAKA JAPAN.Yamaha Music FoundationFormed in 1975.
