Bel and The Loonatics

Bel & The Loonatics is an alternative pop band with a Spanish twist based in London, UK. They are known for having an authentic, powerful and spontaneous sound that comes from wide-ranging influences, from the deepest Flamenco and the hardest Rock, to the finest Jazz and the trendiest Pop. The band is formed by lead singer and Latin Grammy nominee Belén Arjona, bassist Sabrina Bonini and percussionist Alba Milanés. Bel Arjona began her successful career in her native Spain, signing and releasing her first album with Warner Music in 2003. Her second album gave her a Latin Grammy nomination for Best Rock Vocal Album in 2006. The award ultimately went to Gustavo Cerati, but the nomination and her strong spirited attitude and passionate lyrics gave her international recognition. She released 2 more albums, one of them independently, before she moved to London in 2011. Since the band formed in February 2014, they have been performing regularly in renowned London venues such as The Troubadour (where they currently have a Friday residency), The Good Ship and Scala, where they opened for the acclaimed Spanish Rock band M-Clan in a sold out show. Their first EP is scheduled to be released in 2015 and will be produced by Jaime García Soriano, experienced Spanish producer and founding member of Sexy Sadie, one of the most acclaimed bands in Spanish pop history.
