Hire: K-Paz de la Sierra

K-Paz de la Sierra was formed in December 2002 in Michoacán, Mexico, by Sergio Gómez, Armando Rodríguez, and Rafael Solís, all former members of Montez de Durango. The original lineup included Sergio Gómez (lead vocals), Óscar Zepeda (second vocals), Rafael Solís (keyboard), Armando Rodríguez (tambora), José Luis Corral (keyboard), Simón Valtierrez (electric tuba and third vocals), and Jair Loredo (drums).

Their debut album, Arrasando con Fuego (2003), introduced them to the regional Mexican music scene. However, it was their second album, Pensando en Ti (2004), that catapulted them to fame, with the single “Volveré” becoming a significant hit in both Mexico and the United States.

Subsequent albums like Más Capaces que Nunca (2005), Conquistando Corazones (2006), and Capaz de Todo por Ti (2007) solidified their status in the Duranguense genre.

Tragedy Strikes: The Death of Sergio Gómez (2007)

On December 2, 2007, lead singer Sergio Gómez was kidnapped after a concert in Michoacán. His body was discovered the next day near Morelia, showing signs of torture and strangulation. Reports indicated that his murder was premeditated by a drug-related gang in the area.

Lineup Changes and Side Projects

Following Gómez’s death, the band experienced several lineup changes and the emergence of side projects:

La Autoridad de la Sierra (2004): Formed by former members Jair Loredo, Óscar Zepeda, Simón Valtierrez, and José Luis Corral after leaving K-Paz de la Sierra.
AK-7 (2007): Established by seven departing members, including Gerardo Ramírez, after disagreements within K-Paz de la Sierra. The name stands for “Antes K-Paz,” highlighting their origins.
Majestad de la Sierra (2008): Formed by five former members due to conflicts with management, particularly with Juan Gómez, Sergio’s brother.
