Banda Blanca is a Honduran musical ensemble formed in January 17, 1971. They began as a rock band, but eventually integrated elements of merengue and punta to their music. The name of the band came after Antonio Lungas wanted a band to perform on the night club named "Garzas Blancas", and afterwards the band decided to mix the names, creating Banda Blanca.[1] The band rose to fame in early 1990 when their song "Sopa de Caracol" became an international success, peaking at number-one in the Billboard Top Latin Songs in the United States.[2] They also released the songs "Fiesta" and "Swing Latino", reaching the American charts.[3] Their album, Baila Blanca, became a number-one hit on the Tropical Albums chart.[4] The group received a Lo Nuestro award for "Tropical - New Artist of the Year".[5]
