00:00Hola, estamos aquí en el backstage de Coachella y vamos a platicar con...

00:04Ticcaro Batman!

00:06My name is Preston, this is Renee.

00:08What's your name?

00:09My name is Carlos Cerevelo.

00:10Eduardo Arenas.

00:12Gabriel Villa.

00:13So you guys are playing the outdoor stage.

00:15What's the vibe been like so far?

00:16Are you guys enjoying yourself?

00:17Yeah, he saw Silly Dan yesterday.

00:19Silly Dan was incredible.

00:20Tim and Paula yesterday was great.

00:22The ACDC was nuts!

00:25Where did you guys come up with the name?

00:26The name came from the singer.

00:28And he had kind of a sort of pet name for himself.

00:31A lot of that came out of the logo which was a mesh between the USW flag and Batman.

00:36So what you have is you have an everyday hero.

00:38What's the message you want people to take away when they watch your band play?

00:41I would love people to be like very open-minded about the music we do because we describe it as a Capirotada.

00:46You know, it's a mix of different genres.

00:48Capirotada is like a Latin bread pudding.

00:50It's got nuts, it's got cheese, it's soaking, it's delicious.

00:53People have to be like ears open and ready to get all that energy.

00:58But I'm in the future now.

01:03With feet on the earth and hands on the branches that I climb.

01:10What would be your ideal collaborations with Chicano Batman that would kind of be like the perfect match?

01:16I personally would like to hear Cedric from Hacking Mask and Mark Volta.

01:20Our Justin's connection would have been with ITO it.

01:23We were supposed to record with him in February, but unfortunately he passed away.

01:27But his spirit is kind of guiding us.

01:29I had a good time. It was fun. Chicano Batman is right there charging their phones.
