Music Style Energetic Pop Punk

Artist History Bye Sami was formed in Tijuana in 1997, when the band was still called Los Alex. The Latino rockers soon acquired a small following in Mexico as well as in the United States, and it wasn't unusual for a gig in Tijuana or Mexico City to be followed by a gig in Los Angeles or San Diego. In 2001, Los Alex changed their name to Bye Sami and signed with SourPOP Records, a small independent label that is based in L.A. and has a rock en español orientation. It was also in 2001 that Bye Sami recorded their debut album, "Otro Dia Mas", which was produced by Mike T (known for his work with Union 13, Choking Victim and Osker). Although Bye Sami had put out an EP back when they were called Los Alex, "Otro Dia Mas" was their first full-length album. SourPOP released "Otro Dia Mas" in 2002.

Press Reviews Based in Tijuana, Mexico (just south of the Mexican border), Bye Sami is both an emo/punk-pop band and a rock en español band. Bye Sami's songs have the usual emo trademarks--fast tempos, guitar-powered aggression and poppy melodies combined with introspective, confessional lyrics. And musically, Bye Sami is comparable to bands like The Ataris, blink-182, NOFX and Midtown (among others). But lyrically, there is one major difference between Bye Sami and those English-language outfits: Bye Sami's lyrics are in Spanish. ~ Alex Henderson, All Music Guide
