“[Loyal Lobos] refined her confessional songwriting and graceful sound” – Rolling Stone 

“She’s switched seamlessly to Spanish, marrying an alt-pop sound with the punch of Spanish-language story-telling and leaving us better for it.” – Billboard Latin

“A sonically enchanting masterpiece… a musical journey that transcends linguistic boundaries, evoking emotions that resonate within the core of your being.” – Blurred Culture

Los Angeles, CA – The rising Colombia-born, Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter Loyal Lobos releases her mesmerizing new EP, LOBA Vol. I, via Saban Music Latin. Her latest EP is garnering Loyal Lobos critical acclaim, including a rave review from Blurred Culture and additional support from The FADER (Essential Projects), Rolling StoneBillboard LatinEnVi Media (in-depth feature) and more. Its three singles – the raw and vulnerable “Autosabotear,” the sultry banger “El Rio” and the sentimental anthem “Si Volviera A Conocerte”–earned early praise from Rolling Stone (Song You Need to Know), Billboard (Best New Latin), Spotify (el nuevo indie cover, New Music Friday Latin) Brooklyn Vegan, Remezcla and NPR Music/WXPN’s Best New Latin, among others. Three new tracks, including the irresistible opener “Tengo Sed,” the kaleidoscopic dance track “Una Gata” and the sole English ballad, “Born To Self Destruct,” make their world debut now. 

Her second EP of 2023 and immediate follow-up to May’s acclaimed Una Freak EP, LOBA Vol. I uses the universal language of pop to transform and celebrate the sounds of Loyal Lobos’ home country. Its six songs mark a confident new era for the trailblazing bilingual singer/songwriter, guitarist and producer. The EP is called LOBA Vol. I because it encapsulates all sides of Loyal Lobos as an artist: curious, edgy and full-of-life. “As I’ve continued to take on the moniker and this musical identity, it’s grown so much in meaning to me,” Loyal Lobos notes. “Loba means she-wolf and it embodies delicacy and fragility in a maternal way, but also fierceness and sensuality in a lot of mythological ways. There’s power, but also punishment for being too sexual and too confident.”

Like her own genre-bending music and unflinching creative ethos, the EP triggers a lot of emotions and double meanings. As you dig into her gorgeously dense and direct songs, you’ll uncover more and more.

ABOUT LOYAL LOBOS  

Loyal Lobos is a genre-defying, bilingual singer/songwriter, guitarist and producer raised in Colombia and now based in Los Angeles. She explored coming-of-age emotions on her critically acclaimed debut LP, Everlasting, but her latest work is a more encompassing and evolved reflection of her own sensibility and voice. LOBA Vol. I is a bold new six-song EP and follow-up to the lauded Una Freak EP for Saban Music Latin. It uses the universal language of pop to transform and celebrate the sounds of her home country and marks a confident new era for the trailblazing artist. “To me, this EP feels like my first official statement,” says Loyal Lobos, who was named one of Rolling Stone’s Latin Acts to Watch and has earned accolades from The New Yorker, Pitchfork, The FADER, Billboard, i-D/Vice and more. “I’m finally presenting my whole self.” 

Loyal Lobos’ journey has been as winding, unpredictable, and vivid as her own music. Born in the countryside of Bogotá, Colombia, the child of a Colombian dentist and an economist, Andrea Silva’s first experience with music was singing at funerals and learning guitar at five years old. When she moved to America after high school, she found her early experiences informed her perspective as a burgeoning songwriter. Loyal Lobos has always been a bilingual artist, but for this EP, she was drawn much closer to her Spanish-speaking roots. The EP is called LOBA Vol. I because it encapsulates all sides of Loyal Lobos as an artist: curious and edgy, where lightness and life bursts through melancholy. As you dig into her gorgeously dense and direct songs, you’ll uncover more and more.
