Ráfaga is one of the most important bands within the Argentine cumbia. Formed in 1994, they started playing in Argentine cumbia clubs and quickly gained popularity.
The band characterises by medieval outfits and jewelry, sometimes becoming close to an image that can be described like a Liberace style.
In 1997 and 1998 they participated in the Midem Latino de Musica in Miami, which gave them a certain international reputation, taking their music to other countries such as Chile, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, Peru, and even to Spain at the end of 1999. In 2001 they went on a North American tour to Canada, then to New York, Washington and Miami.
They continued touring, with concerts in other countries such as Romania (where "La luna y tú" was used for a commercial), Sweden, Norway, Switzerland, China and Australia.
