Camela is a Spanish musical group credited with being the pioneers of the style baptised as tecno-rumba in the 90s. Its members are Dionisio Martin Lobato (singer-composer), María de los Ángeles Muñoz Dueñas (singer-songwriter), and until February 2013, Miguel Angel Jimenez Cabrera (keyboards), all of them from the Madrid neighbourhood of San Cristóbal de los Ángeles. The group is a landmark in the Spanish popular music scene, without critics' acceptance, and hardly any support from the media, they became a massive selling success, having a great musical and sociological impact on Spanish society. Camela is the second best selling band in Spain in the past 20 years, only surpassed by La Oreja de Van Gogh.
