FANEKA is a band based between Catalunya and Madrid (Spain). Their music has often been labelled as "magical folk". Genres they explore go mostly from North and Latin American folk to psychedelic rock and Iberian folklore. Reminiscences of Lhasa De Sela and traditional Spanish folkore meet early-2000s US indie vibes like those of Neutral Milk Hotel or Sufjan Stevens, in dreamy-watery-mermaidy soundscapes provided by FANEKA's unique combination of string instruments, guitar and vocals. Seventies rock is also present in the background (Led Zeppelin, King Crimson) and in their love for irregular rythms and progressiveness. FANEKA started in 2016 when lead singer and writer Inés (guitar) and Bruna (cello) started playing together after they were introduced by a common friend. A self-produced LP brought them together with Anika on violin (Ombligo) and Miriam on cajón (El No de las Niñas), later replaced by Alan Denis on drums ( Pedro Pastor y Los Locos Descalzos). Another independent release followed in 2019 with El Viento y la Flor. During the pandemic, the band worked with producer Gonzalo Lasheras (Vaivén, Jorge Drexler, "El Círculo (Versión Exclusiva de Spotify), Kase O) to release their second album in March 2022: Caliu . With the release of Caliu, the band teamed up with label Metales Preciosos (Madrid, Spain). Currently FANEKA are touring and working on their third studio album.
