Los Velvets
Tucson, Arizona, United States
About
Los Velvets are an independent band straight out of the Sonoran-Arizona Desert, and are currently based in Tucson, Arizona. The band was formed as a recording project in 2020 during the pandemic by Alec Ruvalcaba, Fabian Ríos and Samuel Bencomo. With the addition of drummer Jorge Parker and multi-instrumentalist Nicole Paco, they started playing high energy live shows from Hermosillo, MX to Phoenix, AZ. By experimenting with sounds from Psychedelic Rock, Dream pop, and taking inspiration from various other genres, they create a distinct sound that blends two different cultures and emphasizes where they’re from. Written over the past year, and recorded live at Onda Sonora in Hermosillo, MX. their first EP ‘Azúcar y Miél’ delivers an infectious, jangly guitar driven record. The bands desire is to contribute to the rise and normalization of bilingual music, made by Latinx, in popular American culture. New EP ‘Azúcar y Miel’ out now!
