The band started in march of 2004, when Karen and Chanto got together to start a new music venture. This would be their second time together in a band, since they had previously been in Prana, a Trip Hop trio a few years back. Joe and Diego would later join them, giving birth to SATIN DOLLS.
Influenced mainly by new wave, punk and a new worldwide rock scene, the band began writing songs. At the same time they started performing in the main Rock and Roll venues of Mexico City, and after just six months of playing together signed a record contract with Universal Music Mexico.
In October of 2005, the band traveled to Miami, to record part of their first E.P, with the Argentinean producer Gustavo Menendez (Volumen Cero, Circo, JD Natasha, Cohete). A few months later, they recorded two more songs with Emmanuel "Meme" del Real, who happens to be a band member of Café Tacvba, and has worked as a producer with many artists (Ely Guerra, Natalia y la Forquetina, Liquits).
During these two years Satin Dolls have been in places that range from small venues such as Bulldog, Hard Rock Live, and Pasaguero, to massive concerts in Foro Sol, in the Vive Latino Festivals of 2006, and 2007. In the beginning of 2007, they were the opening act for PLACEBO during their Mexico Tour, playing in places such as the Arena Monterrey, the Vicente Fernandez Forum, in Guadalajara, and the Salon Jose Cuervo in Mexico City.
The band is currently finishing their first L.P produced by Yamil Rezc & mixed by Phil Vinall.
