Hola Manana started about two months ago and are still together.
Although most of them won't admit it or believe it, the group draw influences from the likes of the Penguin Cafe Orchestra, Amiina, the Album Leaf, Beirut, Sigur Rós, the Go! Team along with copious amounts of Galician music.
Live, they battle each other to the death; melodicas and glockenspiels clashing as swords, flutes darting back and forth like deadly arrows (don't fuck with Claire), dagger-like timpani sticks stabbing from behind, before Tony destroys us all with his monsterous bass leaving Caitriona to level the building with her battering-ram piano.
Epic stuff.
Songs are still rough at the mo, with more demos 'n stuff to come.
