A musical resistance formed on the

backstreets of Barcelona ‘Kid

Hyena’ embrace the urban landscape of

the city with crafted electronic beats &

synth melodies. This they combine with

an alchemy of sound featuring tap

dance & body percussion, melodic

'alt rock' infused bass and heartfelt

voices sung in English and Spanish.

Both band members are keen lyricists

with an eye for writing about social and

cultural themes and their words are

integral to the bands make up and

trajectory.

Influenced by old school folk & hip hop

sounds, alternative rock and

experimental music the band have just

recently finished an exploratory period

of intensive recording where they

released three albums over two and a

half years.

Just recently the band have completed

their third album 'Gravitate' which

showcases their new 'Electro Alt Hop'

sound.

As ever the band cease to remain static

and continue to look for new innovative

ways forward with their music. They've

several projects currently on the go

including the acoustic 'Soapbox 21'

, a musical graphic novel, a new record

label and new material for an as yet

untitled album being recorded.

Now based in the UK, they have had

radio coverage on amongst others BBC

Essex & BBC Introducing, from the

autumn of 2021 the band are planning

a year long tour in a campervan to play

as much music as possible and raise

money for child protection charity 'War

Child'.

They began with 2017’s acoustic

statement ‘Rebel Heart Club’ and

followed up in 2018 with musical

collage ‘B Side Fantasy'.
