Austin based, by way of Dallas, indie synth-pop sensations Luna Luna released their first single of the year with “Dance With U”. After a fulfilling last year for Austin-based dream pop band, Luna Luna is ready to head into a new chapter with their newest track “Dance With U” which takes the quartet fully into a new direction as they move the world of bedroom pop to the dancefloor.
Their latest era is audibly driven by exploring the sounds of the Latin music they grew up with, recognizing that the common denominator of the music that raised them was the ability to spark an instinct to dance alongside emotive lyrics. This influence moved the Austin-based quartet to create an anthem for crying at the club.
Taking their signature love-lorn lyricism, the band is moving their audience from passive listeners to active dancers by creating a song around heartbreak while sonically constructing a danceable track to make people move. The song itself revolves around thinking you’re over someone, but being swayed back into your feelings for them the moment you see them dance or move. Adding even more new textures to their new direction, the single features a collaboration with Latin artist from Monterrey, Mexico, Shrt_Lyf, who adds a dynamic verse into the track.
Austin-based, by way of Dallas, Indie quartet Luna Luna has bested the local climate and bent the scorching Texas sun to their will across emotion-drenched, euphoric throwback synth-pop grooves. Originally the sole project of Colombian-born, Dallas-bred Kavvi Gonzalez, Luna Luna has grown into a four-piece through serendipitous meetings that has expanded to include Danny Bonilla (vocals/keys), Kaylin Martinez (drums) and Ryan “Gordo” Gordon (bass/backup vocals). From being drawn together by performing house parties across Texas to now lighting up stages of renowned venues, Luna Luna has earned a reputation of perpetually building up a passionate fan base eager to turn up, swoon, and slow dance.
On stage, the band continues to sell out crowds during headlining national tours, with a 2022 that included stops at the historic Ford Theater in Los Angeles, delivered a set at Austin City Limits Festival where they were highlighted as cover stars for the Austin Chronicle’s ACL Fest Preview Edition, and a coveted opening slot for Omar Apollo at ACL Live – culminating in them being considered one of the “10 Latin Acts Set To Make It Big In 2023” by Rolling Stone.
