Kudai, the Chilean group that mixes pop and rock harmonies with rich, emotional and youthful lyrics, will return to the stage at Los Premios MTV 2008. The quartet has settled in Mexico following the amazing success of their music in Latin America. Their latest album Nhada has demonstrated that the group is one of the hottest bands among young people and that their music can surpass language and cultural barriers. Kudai has received four nominations for Los Premios MTV 2008 including "Best Group or Duo," "Best Pop Artist," "Best Artist Central" and "Best Fan Club." The band was also the winner of the coveted "Best Pop Artist" tongue at Los Premios MTV 2007.

Inside In/Inside Out featured the hit singles "She Moves in Her Own Way," "You Don't Love Me," "Sofa Song," "Eddie's Gun," "Ooh La" and "Naive." The Brighton quartet quickly made a name for themselves as songwriters on the British scene along with talented bands such as The Kinks, Oasis, Coldplay and many others. Their second album Konk was produced by Tony Hoffer (Beck, Air, The Fratellis) and recorded in London and Los Angeles in 2007. Konk was officially released in April 2008 and features the Latin American breakthrough hits "Shine On" and "Always Where I Need To Be."
