Las Nubes

On June 14, again working with Sweat Records Records and engineer/producer Jonathan Nunez (Torche), Las Nubes will release their sophomore LP, Tormentas Malsanas, or “unhealthy storms,” a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the reality of living through Miami summers. Similar to the way a clear day turns gray with the threat of inclement weather, Tormentas Malsanas addresses common and uncommon struggles — from the difficulties of starting a family as a female musician and the pains of getting older without a lucid understanding of where you’re going to Covid depression and the desire to stand up against injustice in a productive way — through the energetic buoyancy of Las Nubes’s trademark loud as hell, garage pop sound. The heavy emotions addressed through the lyrics crossed with their vibrant and dynamic instrumental arrangements give the album a sense of hopefulness that reminds listeners: even the most turbulent moments don’t last forever.
