Saiko (band)

Saiko is a Chilean synth-pop and pop rock band established in the late 1990s.[1] Throughout their career they have achieved great notoriety in the musical Chilean scene, largely due to the charisma, image and voice of their vocalist, Denisse Malebrán, and the musical talent and experience of Rodrigo "Coti" Aboitiz and Luciano Rojas, both former members and founders of the Chilean group La Ley. To date they have released seven studio albums: Informe Saiko (1999), Campos finitos (2001), Todo Saiko (2003), Las horas (2004), Volar (2007), Trapecio (2013) and Lengua Muerta (2017).
