On November 17th, the LA-based Latin Urban band MYRANDAS is set to captivate audiences once again. After celebrating their brand new single, 'Con Una Flor,' at the Dia De Los Muertos Festival, the band is releasing a music video for the track. 'Con Una Flor' follows the band’s Spanish debut, 'Cuando Te Vi,' and pushes the boundaries of their new sound even further.

Originally founded in Havana by the trilingual vocalist Kristina Miranda and Cuban musician/Grammy-winning engineer Marciel Miranda, the band continue to redefine their sound, exploring the Urbano genre. This love-infused track effortlessly merges trap rhythmic elements with Latin pop, laced with indie rock, and brings a unique music experience to listeners.

The evolution of MYRANDAS is palpable in this release. Building upon the success of their single 'Cuando Te Vi,' which garnered support from notable publications such as Lefuturewave, Roadie Music, and Bravo Revista, the band demonstrate their commitment to innovation with “Con Una Flor.” This single marks a pivotal moment for the project, as Marciel (guitarist/music producer) lends his vocals for the first time in this release, unlocking new creative possibilities.

When speaking more on "Con Una Flor," Kristina explained: We named the song based on the lyrics "Por ti yo voy a la luna y volvería con una flor" (For you, I would go to the moon and return with a flower."). We wanted to capture the essence of a love so powerful that it dares to dream the impossible. We threw both of our voices into the mix – to add that playful and heartfelt emotion, and this little experiment has opened a whole new path to uncharted artistic territories for our band!”

In support of the single, the band has created a music video. The captivating voices of Kristina and Marciel along with fresh instrumentation create a vibrant and emotional performance that was captured on camera by Adan Alonso. The lyrics of the song and the visuals will immerse the listener further into the romantic atmosphere of the track. Their performance, alongside Cuban-Puerto Rican percussionist Richard Herrera, offers a distinct take on the urbano genre. Unlike the solo artist approach, MYRANDAS' dynamic rendition adds a distinct flavor through their band representation.

With their Spanish debut, ‘Cuando Te Vi,’ the band took the first steps into embracing Urbano culture in their music. With “Con Una Flor,” MYRANDAS prove that they are determined to make a lasting impact in the Latin scene and are the ones to keep an eye on.

About

MYRANDAS is a Latin Urban band based in Los Angeles, created in Havana by Armenian singer Kristina Miranda and Cuban guitarist/ Grammy-winning engineer Marciel Miranda. The duo began as a rock project, gaining a devoted fan base. However, in 2022, they embarked on a journey of rediscovering their musical identity and embracing Caribbean culture in their music. The band blends Latin grooves, catchy guitar riffs, pop, and electronic music elements, offering a fresh perspective on the Urbano genre. The current lineup includes Cuban-Puerto Rican percussionist Richard Herrera.

The story of MYRANDAS started in 2009 when Kristina arrived in Cuba to record her solo album. At the recording studio, she crossed paths with Marciel, and their encounter sparked both a creative partnership and a love story. In 2010, Kristina left her hometown in Moscow, Russia, to join forces with Marciel in Havana, forming the core of their musical project. By the end of 2015, the band began attracting media attention and earned opportunities to perform at notable events like the Havana World Music Festival. Their music also garnered them a nomination for Best Rock Band of Cuba at the "Cuerda Viva" Awards.

In 2016, MYRANDAS decided to take their music overseas, settling in the city of Los Angeles. Their debut show took place at the Last Frame of Sand movie fundraiser, where they opened for Stanley Clarke. Over the following years, they performed at renowned LA venues and participated in local festivals, including Echo Park Rising and Mar Vista Music & Art Walk.

In 2020, the couple started to bring awareness to the situation in Cuba through their music. In December, the duo released their single "90 Miles," mixed by Grammy-winning producer Jacquire King. The song referenced the distance between the US and Cuba, reflecting the strained political relations between the two countries. In July of 2021, they released “Home” to shine more light on the situation on the island. The song featured the remarkable talents of Matt Bissonette (Elton John, Ringo Starr) and Christian Paschall (Maren Morris, David Crowder).

Previously known for their rebellious rock songs, MYRANDAS (aka High Grass) received recognition in publications like Rolling Stone and Buzzbands LA, while also gaining support from Planet Rock, Maxim Rock radio stations, and many more.

Inspired by artists like Rosalía, Bomba Estéreo, and Bad Bunny, the band introduced their new sound to audiences at NextFest at the LA County Fair in 2022. Alongside Cuban-Puerto Rican percussionist Richard Herrera, MYRANDAS performed as a trio at popular tropical, dance, and Afro-Latin music events, including the renowned Subsuelo Sundays and La Junta.

Released in the summer of 2023, MYRANDAS' debut Spanish single 'Cuando Te Vi' received support globally from publications such as LeFutureWave, Roadie Music, Bravo Revista, Zona Emergente, and Passioni Musicali, solidifying the band's presence in the Latin music scene.
