Carmelita

about

There are a couple of artists who go by the name Carmelita: 1. Carmelita is a power pop, loser core band from Madrid. They are influenced by guitar bands such as Japandroids, Beach Slang, Car Seat Headrest, and Soccer Mommy. The band started out in 2016 as a folk duo, comprised of singer singer songwriter Patrick Kilbride (lead vocals, rhythm guitar) and Alex Garcia (lead guitar). As a side project for Patrick, he started working on a demo tape that had more of a garage-rock sound to the acoustic songs that were already being worked on. Afterwards, they hired Ricardo Costa (drums) and Bruno Motta (bass) - they both enjoyed Patrick's unfussy style, and deadpan lyrics (which deal with relationships, guilt and chagrin). After 1/2 a year of working on their songs, rehersals and band battles, they re-recorded the original rock demo in Brian Hunt's studio in Madrid. Paula Martin completes the band on drums, and they plan to launch their first EP soon. 2. Carmelita is a Latin folk / country artist from Brazil who relased the album Recordação in the 1960s.
