Bio
Some of the most original and affecting music I’ve heard in the last 10 years. Killer songwriting, delivered with emotional power and guts—and endlessly inventive musicality. The kind of songs I’ve been waiting to hear.” - Ben Deily (the Lemonheads)
That giddy feeling of falling in love: as if your stomach dropped down to your knees—and your perceptions turned thrillingly upside-down. “That’s the feeling we want to create when you hear one of our songs,” declares Tijuana-born Miguel Ángel Montes—co-founder of bilingual alternative rock band Somos Uno. He smiles modestly. “At least, well...that’s what we’re always aiming for.”
Founded in East LA and the Inland Empire, Somos Uno began as a two-piece collaboration, initially named named Pet the Music, between singer/guitarist Miguel Montes and bassist/singer Adriana Molina. From the first, their music combined irresistibly catchy harmony and melody with unexpected sonic twists— and bracing power.
Inspired with the influence (and sonic echoes) of bands from Nirvana and the Pixies to Smashing Pumpkins, Somos Uno's sound isn’t easy to pin down to one simple genre or style. “We try to work in that place of harmony where life meets music...letting a song’s structures evolve naturally, as we experiment and explore. There’s never a formula.”
