Manola

Manola is a rising Spanish indie pop artist hailing from Barcelona, known for her raw lyricism and genre-blending sound that mixes dreamy synths, lo-fi textures, and confessional storytelling. Emerging in the early 2020s, she quickly carved a niche with relatable anthems about love, identity, and the messy realities of young adulthood, earning comparisons to artists like Cariño and Mujeres. Tracks like "1977" and "Me Extraño" showcase her knack for pairing nostalgic '80s-tinged melodies with candid lyrics about self-doubt and reinvention, while her "#balladisthenewpunk" live performances highlight her DIY punk spirit. With a growing catalog of introspective bops and collaborations within Spain's indie scene, Manola's music feels like late-night heart-to-hearts with your most honest friend—equal parts vulnerable, witty, and impossible to stop playing on repeat.
