asia menor

**Asia Menor** is a São Paulo-based indie pop quartet known for their dreamy, jangly sound that blends nostalgic '80s influences with a modern Brazilian twist. Formed in the late 2010s, the band—Julia Lima (vocals/guitar), Luiz Scanavini (guitar), Gabriel Pavan (bass), and Rodrigo Lima (drums)—crafts shimmering tracks that mix post-punk rhythms, tropical textures, and poetic Portuguese lyrics. Their 2023 album *Enola Gay* (featuring standout tracks like the title single and "Patio") solidified their reputation for merging melancholic melodies with sun-kissed indie pop, while newer releases like "Doce" continue to showcase their knack for bittersweet, reverb-soaked storytelling. With a sound that feels both globally familiar and distinctly local, Asia Menor has become a beloved fixture in Brazil’s vibrant DIY scene.
