The first components of Vetusta Morla were Pucho (Juan Pedro Martín, voice), David García "el Indio" (drums), Jorge González (percussion), Alejandro Notario (bass) and Guillermo Galván (guitar). Later, at the end of 1998, Juan Manuel Latorre joined the group as a guitar and keyboard, Alejandro Notario left the group, finally completing the sextet with Álvaro B. Baglietto.
