Los Fabulosos Cadillacs is an Argentine ska band from Buenos Aires. Formed in 1985, they released their first album, Bares y Fondas (Bars and Boardinghouses), in 1986 and have since released fourteen more albums. They are one of the most influential and most-referenced ska bands of the Latin ska world. The band's sound is a mix of ska, salsa, mambo, reggae, funk and samba. It is also noted for its irreverent and humorous lyrics which often contain political undertones.
