Career


Kairo was conceptualized by Toño Berumen as an all-male trio boy band in 1993. Kairo's first single was "En los espejos de un café" based on the Italian group 883's hit "Nord sud ovest est". The song gained great popularity and was followed by the release of the first album, Signo del tiempo (meaning Sign of the times). Other singles from the album included "Háblame de tí", "Pérdoname" and "Te amaré".
The follow-up album was Gaudium, released in 1995 and resulting in singles "No nos rendimos", "Si te vas" and "Dile que la amo". But was "Ponme La Multa" the biggest hit of the album (alongside "Dile que la amo"), "Ponme La Multa" was released in May, 1995 and became a strong hit in Mexico and many other countries; the music video was about three friends who fall in love with a female highway patrol agent, this video had strong rotation in the whole year. Kairo was nominated for a Lo Nuestro Award for Pop New Artist of the Year at the 7th Lo Nuestro Awards.
In 1996, Cara a cara was released, including songs from the two previous albums like "En los espejos de un café", "Te amare" and "Ponme la multa (Fammi la multa)". The album was shared with the a rival band of the same genre called Magneto.
In 1997, the album Éxitos was released which was basically a compilation of songs from Signo del tiempo and Gaudium, with the unreleased "Mi querida Isabel" added. The album also included energy and dance remixes of three of their previous hits.
Meanwhile, Verástegui had left the band for an acting career. He continued a music career, releasing his only solo album, Eduardo Verástegui in 2001 in Miami through the Universal Latino record label.
In 1997, the album Libres was released with Soto having replaced Verástegui. Soto had been a winner of the Mister México competition. Libres was distributed for free in certain areas. "Siempre me acuerdo de tí", "Vuelve conmigo (ven)" and "Locos por tí" were released as singles. After Libres, the departure of Forat and Zorrilla was announced. Forat was replaced by the ex-Tierra Cero member Paulo César Quevedo and Zorilla by the model Roberto Assad Martínez.
Kairo released one last album entitled Pasiones in 1998 with "Bailando en tu habitación" in 1998 being their last single. The band was ended after appearing in the 1999 Teleton.
