Huevos Rancheros were a Canadian surf rock band from Calgary, Alberta,[1] active from 1990 to 2000.[2] Huevos Rancheros performed an instrumental blend of rockabilly, surf, garage and punk music.

History

Initially consisting of guitarist Brent Cooper, bassist Graham Evans and drummer Richie Ranchero,[3] Huevos Rancheros released the six-song EP Huevosaurus independently in 1990 before releasing the EP Rocket to Nowhere in 1991 on Estrus Records.[3] In its early years the band was sometimes described as a cross between Led Zeppelin and The Ventures.[3]

The band then signed to C/Z Records, which reissued Huevosaurus in 1992 before releasing the band's full-length album Endsville in 1993.[4]

In 1995, the band signed to Mint Records.[5] Around the same time, Evans left the band and was replaced by Tom Kennedy.[6] The band's instrumental rock record Dig In was released that year.[7]

In 1998, their album Get Outta Dodge was nominated for a Juno Award in the Best Alternative Album category.[8][2]

After touring in Europe with Duotang,[9] in 2000 the band released the album Muerte del Toro. They broke up soon after, although they have performed occasional reunion shows at benefit concerts to raise money for a journalism scholarship named in memory of former Calgary Herald music critic James Muretich.[10] The reunion show lineup has featured Evans rather than Kennedy on bass.[10]

Cooper went on to found The Ramblin' Ambassadors, a three-piece instrumental band.[11][12]
