Hombres G is a Spanish pop rock band, formed in Spain in 1982. They are widely considered one of Spain's most important groups of the late 1980s and 1990s. The band consists of David Summers (bass, vocals), Rafael Gutierrez (guitar), Dani Mezquita (guitar), and Javi Molina (drums).
Hombres G made their debut at Madrid's Rock-Ola in 1983 with melodies that hinted at the early Beatles and the British New Wave movement. They rose in popularity after the release of their first album, Hombres G (1985), and their smash hit "Devuйlveme a mi chica". They also faced an increasing fan base — over six thousand people covered the Gran Vнa Madrileсa in Spain at the time of release of their two movies and Peru's Lima Airport was nearly closed due to the 20,000 fans that covered the landing runway during their first visit to the country.
Their early material was primarily known for its youthful nature, but it eventually progressed into something more reflective of an adult world — the latter being evident in albums such as Йsta es tu vida (1990). Hombres G went on hiatus after the release of their 1992 album, Historia del bikini. During the following years, David pursued a solo career, Rafa and Dani remained involved in the music industry, and Javi devoted time to his bar in Madrid.
2003 saw the release of the tribute, Voy a pasбrmelo bien, un tributo a Hombres G, and the band's recopilatory album, Peligrosamente Juntos, which included never before released material. Hombres G embarked on a world tour and announced their return.
A year later they released the studio album Todo esto es muy extraсo (their first in 12 years) and toured with Spanish pop rock band El Canto del Loco. In 2007, they released 10 and their most recent work is entitled Desayuno continental.
Career
Formation and beginning years (1982-1985)
David Summers (David Summers Rodrнguez, February 26, 1964) met guitarist Rafa Gutiйrrez (Rafael Gutiйrrez Muсoz, April 11, 1960) in 1982 in Televisiуn Espaсola, where they did figuration work in the show Aplauso. Soon after, Rafael asked David to play clarinet in the new group he was planning to do with his brother Felipe — David had always admired the clarinetist Benny Goodman, and had therefore studied the instrument. Tequila had just dissolved, Felipe was free, and Rafael didn't quite clearly see his role in the different groups he had been in, like Plбstico (group formed with Toti Бrboles and Eduardo Benavente before they were implicated in other groups like Alaska y los Pegamoides), Las Chinas, and even Los Zombies de Bernardo Bonezzi (which he occasionally toured with).
David accepted, but asked for Rafa to put in his guitar into the alternate project he was preparing with his two childhood friends, Dani Mezquita (Daniel Mezquita Hardy, June 10, 1965, keyboard and guitar) and Javi Molina (Francisco Javier de Molina Burgos, June 16, 1964, drums). One thing led to another, and in a short time, Rafa started working with them, whom had already been playing months before by names such as "Los Residuos" (The Residues) and "La Burguesнa Revolucionaria" (The Revolutionary Bourgeoisie).
When Rafa joined they didn't have a name, and after rejecting their first thought of a name, Bonitos Redford (Pretty Redfords), they decided to name themselves after the James Cagney 1935 movie G Men. The movie had screened in Spain as Contra el imperio del crimen (Against the Crime Empire), where the G-Men (Hombres G in Spanish), were special FBI agents.
In 1983 they made their debut and first performances at Rock-Ola, where their music hinted at influences from the Beatles and New Wave. That same year they also released their first two singles, Milagro en el Congo / Venezia and Marta tiene un marcapasos / La cagaste, Burt Lancaster.
At the same time, their record company, "Lollipop", wasn't in good financial position. After the summer of 1984, Hombres G were almost in a dead-end alley, with their record company delaying a new release and other record companies not listening. But in the autumn of 1984, they received a new recording offer. Paco Martнn had just launched his new discographic seal, "Twins", and offered to record their first album.
Simply named Hombres G, the new album included Venezia from its previous singles and a new soon-to-be hit single: Devuйlveme a mi chica. They also covered such ballads as Alice Cooper's "I Never cry", which they named No llorarй (I won't cry).
1985 became their most prolific year. Hombres G exploded into a mass phenomena, and held a whopping number of 100 concerts. Their first presentation at the Gran Musical de la Cadena SER was held at midnight, but fans waited at the door beginning at 4 AM. They were seen frequently on television and in teen magazines.
Second album and reception in America (1986)
The group returned to recording studios in February 1986 to record their second album, La cagaste... Burt Lancaster (You fucked up... Burt Lancaster), named after one of their very first singles. However, the title song was not included in the album. Furthermore, they included a single from the Lollipop era, Marta tiene un marcapasos, which became one of their three number one singles on Spanish charts. The other two being El ataque de las chicas cocodrilo and Indiana.
With a solid market in Spain, Paco Martнn aimed to take the group to the Americas, where he distributed copies of their material. The first response came from the Peruvian offices of CBS. By mid 1986, they edited Hombres G in Peru, where it sold over fifty thousand copies in less than two weeks. La cagaste... Burt Lancaster faced a smiliar response.
Accordingly, they received an offer from the central offices of CBS in New York to distribute Hombres G throughout the Americas. Consequently, they proved to be a smash hit in Mйxico and Venezuela, where they were awarded gold and platinum records. In December of that same year they won the "Mejor Agrupacion de Habla Hispana" (Best Spanish Speaking Group) award at the Bravo awards in Miami.
The first movie and the third album (1986-1987)
After the summer of 1986, their first two albums had sold over a million copies in Spain. David's father, director Manuel Summers, planned the production of an autobiographic movie about them. The result was Sufre, mamуn, which premiered in March 1987.
Without any extended break, Hombres G prepared their third album. David isolated himself for a week at a family house in Huelva, and composed twelve songs, which were prepared for their third album, Estamos locos... їo quй? (Are we crazy or what?) To avoid pressure, they moved to Manchester with Spanish-Chilean producer, Carlos Narea, in charge of artists' work such as that of Miguel Rнos. Songs like "Y cayу la bomba fetida", "Temblando", "Una mujer de bandera", and "No, no, no" topped sales lists.
When "Sufre, Mamуn" premiиred, the group wasn't able to watch it due to the dozens of newsmen, reporters, and fans, and was forced to stay inside a room for hours due to security reasons. The group's assistants were able to watch the movie, but were unable to hear it due to the deafening murmur of the street fans, and the loud singing of the fans that were able to get in.
1987 Tour
Due to their popularity, in 1987 Hombres G embarked on a tour of 60 concerts throughout Spain's most important soccer stadiums and arenas. That summer, nearly one million people saw Hombres G live.
Hombres G also toured throughout Perъ, Venezuela, Ecuador, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and the United States. When the group arrived at Perъ, nearly 20,000 fans covered the landing runway of the Jorge Chбvez International Airport in Lima. As a result, Hombres G relied on security guards in every hotel to prevent fans from gaining access to the group's rooms — though one did.
Second movie and fourth album (1988)
After taking a rest, Hombres G released their second movie, Suйltate el pelo (Untie your hair) in 1988. The movie was filmed in Spain, Acapulco, and Puerto Vallarta. Its original name was La cagaste... Burt Lancaster, but was changed shortly before its release due to the actor's legal threats.
Almost simultaneously, Hombres G released their fourth album, Agitar antes de usar (Shake before using). Their album was once again a success and was widely known for the songs Suйltate el pelo and Nassau.
Hombres G once again toured Spain, and the Americas. This time, they placed special attention on Mexico, where they had sold more than two million copies of all their albums. In Spain, Hombres G had already become the best selling band of the decade.
The fifth and sixth albums (1989-1990)
Voy a pasбrmelo bien (I'm going to have a good time) was released in 1989. This album was a slight departure from the "fun music" from their previous albums and showed that Hombres G also hoped to reflect a more mature, adult world. Similarly, Esta es tъ vida (This is your life) came to be in 1990. During this period Summers and Mezquita composed several songs for artist Luz Casal, including the ballad Te Deje Marchar.
Seventh album and disbandment (1992-2002)
Hombres G bid farewell on May 20, 1992 with their album Historia del bikini (Story of the bikini). Colin Fairley produced the album, who had previously worked with musicians with the likes of Elvis Costello or Nick Lowe.
Thereafter, David pursued a solo career in Spain and Latin America, releasing three studio albums. Rafa became a guitarist as a collaborator. Dani became a musical producer in the record company Dro. After that farewell, several recopilatory albums containing the band's best songs were released, but never containing new material.
Career comeback and tributes (2002-2004)
After their extended break, Hombres G returned with new material. In 2002 they released Peligrosamente Juntos (Dangerously together), an album that included hits, demos, and five new songs. The version released in America contained the new songs Lo noto and En otro mundo. The European version contained the mentioned songs and also contained Intimidad, No te escaparas and Te vi.

At the end of 2003, Spanish pop groups such as El Canto del Loco, Los Piston, Antonio Vega, Los Secretos, Mikel Erentxun, Seguridad Social, Бlex Ubago and La Cabra Mecбnica, united to make a tribute album to Hombres G. The album Voy a pasбrmelo bien, un tributo a Hombres G (I'm going to have a good time, a tribute to Hombres G), contained cover versions of classic Hombres G singles. Another tribute was made in America with groups such as Divisiуn Minъscula, Moderatto and La Quinta Estaciуn.
In 2004, their first two films were released in DVD format in a pack called Hombres G - Las pelнculas (Hombres G - The Movies), also including extras. That same year, Hombres G released El aсo que vivimos peligrosamente (The year that we lived dangerously). It included live versions of songs from their Peligrosamente Juntos tour.
Todo esto es muy extraсo and tour (2004-2007)
For the first time in over twelve years, Hombres G released a new studio album entitled Todo esto es muy extraсo (This is all very strange) in 2004. The album was produced by Nigel Walker and contained 11 new songs. The release marked the return of Hombres G to the music scene. The first single off the album was їPor quй no ser amigos? which featured the frontman from the Spanish pop/rock band El canto del loco. No lo sй and їQuй soy yo para tн? were the other singles released off the album.
Hombres G embarked on numerous tours throughout Spain, Latin America, and the United States in support of this album. The album had minimal diffusion in the Americas.
10 and tour (2007-2009)
On September 18, 2007, Hombres G released their tenth album 10, which contained 11 new songs. The album spawned two singles: Me Siento Bien and Hombre Real.
10 is described as tuning into the "raw energy of early rock" and hinting at Euro-rock and at the "atmospheric aesthetic favored by Coldplay and the legendary U2" by AllMusic.
Hombres G toured Spain and the Americas in support of 10. One of their performances included a benefit show for the victims of the 2007 Peruvian Earthquake.
The album was nominated for "Best Pop Album By A Duo or Group With Vocal" at the 2008 Latin Grammy Awards.
New Phase and Desayuno Continental (2009-present)
As Hombres G finished off support for their tenth album, they announced the beginning of a new phase in which Internet technology would play a major role in their music. Instead of releasing a traditional album, Hombres G released the new single and music video "Separados" exclusively through their official website. Furthermore, they presented the new songs "Desayuno Continental" and "No Puedo Soportar Perderte", in addition to "Separados", to a small audience at their own Pop'n'Roll bar in Madrid.
Hombres G's transition into modern Internet technology was also marked by their acquisition of Facebook and Twitter accounts and their use of those as main information outlets. The Spanish website Popes80 babtized them with the new name "Hombres G 2.0". In addition, "Separados" attained the number one spot on Popes80's Top 20 Hits chart on the week of October 6, 2009.
It was announced on September 23, 2010, that Hombres G's new studio album will be entitled Desayuno Continental and that they will present it on November 9, 2010, at la Riviera de Madrid. The first single released from the album is "El Secreto de Vivir".
