Lone Ark is the solo musical project of Roberto Sánchez, a producer, sound engineer, singer, and multi-instrumentalist from Cantabria, in northern Spain.

Roberto began recording in 1997 with a group of friends under the name Better Collie, using a four-track recorder, releasing several demo recordings. In 1999, while in London, he acquired a 16-track recorder and started producing under the name Loud and Lone, alongside Borja Juanco.
