The album “Rasta Vasily” has been independently released in Israel in august 2007. Los Caparos are a genuine proof of successful mixing of different cultures, languages and musical styles. Starting their musical carrier in 2004 by playing in pubs and clubs, closely associated with the Russian community of Tel-Aviv, the band has quickly found a way into the hearts of the native Israeli audience as well.

The band's staff is also multicultural, as it includes both native Israeli and Russian speaking musicians.
