The Limiñanas are a French duo hailing from Perpignan, comprising of the husband-and-wife team of Lionel and Marie Limiñana. Embedding the sultry vibes of 1960s French pop with elements of psychedelic rock and Yé-yé, their music is an atmospheric blend that taps into the essence of Serge Gainsbourg and the Velvet Underground with a modern garage twist. Formed in 2009, the band quickly found their footing in the music scene, with their distinct sound garnering them a loyal following across Europe and earning them praise from the underground music community.

Throughout their career, The Limiñanas have been prolific in their output, consistently releasing music that encapsulates their unmistakable cool and cinematic vibe. Their 2022 release "Electrified (Best-of 2009 - 2022)" serves as a testament to their enduring appeal, showcasing a retrospective look at their musical journey. The band's ambient soundtracks, like those found in "The Ballad of Linda L." and "The Devil Inside Me," reflect their knack for crafting soundscapes that could easily underscore a film or a stylish noir thriller. Aside from their studio albums and soundtracks, The Limiñanas have dabbled in reworks and collaborations, such as "Sham System (The Limiñanas Rework)," that sees them infusing their signature sound with the works of others. With a touch of rebellious spirit as evidenced by tracks like "THATCHER'S NOT DEAD," The Limiñanas continue to cement their status as icons of the contemporary psych and neo-mod scene.
