Las Malas Amistades are an indie band from Columbia whose music incorporates folk instrumentation, indie electronic beats, and a lo-fi production sensibility. Founded in 1994 by a group of university students in Bogota, Columbia, the band made its full-length album with La Música de las Malas Amistades (1999), an independent release that is a compilation of home recordings from 1994-1999. Several years later, after the bandmembers had dispersed, they reunited in Bogota to record their second album, Jardín Interior (2005). The album was released by the New York-based indie label Psych-o-Path Records, which also re-released the band's debut; meanwhile, it was released a year later in Europe by the London-based label Honest Jon's Records. Las Malas Amistades subsequently released their third album, Patio Bonito (2007), via Honest Jon's Records in Europe and on their own independent label, Las Malas Grabaciones, in Columbia. ~ Jason Birchmeier, All Music Guide
