Following the breakup of Los Dynamite, Diego Solórzano began Rey Pila as a solo project, releasing his debut album in 2010. After gaining three members, the band moved to New York to start work on their next release, during which they were signed to Julian Casablancas’ label. They subsequently embarked on an international tour to support Albert Hammond Jr., and in 2015 the new wave synth rockers released their sophomore album The Future Sugar.
