hinds

Punchy, fun, and addictive but with a serious side that cuts through when you least expect it - the Spaniards' 4th outing is deliciously designed for those who like to sing along and dance long into the night - And who doesn't enjoy that?!.

Their 4th album, 'Viva Hinds', is the most accomplished, sonically adventurous, honest and celebratory record of Hinds’ career. Written by the band’s co-founders, co-vocalists, co-guitarists and co-songwriters Carlotta Cosials and Ana Perrote, it features their first-ever fully Spanish language songs, as well as first collaborations with the likes of Beck and Fontaines D.C.’s Grian Chatten. Shortly after the band made their debut ten years ago, they hit what felt like an insurmountable obstacle – they had to change their name from Deers to Hinds for legal reasons. But, as their fans began to greet them at shows by cheering “¡VIVA HINDS!”, the band soon realized that what initially felt like an ending was actually just the beginning.

Fast forward to 2023, and 'VIVA HINDS' was written by Cosials and Perrote after a series of endings. They hit a creative rut after releasing their 2020 album, 'The Prettiest Curse', and their bassist and drummer devastatingly decided to leave the band. They also split with their management team, lost touring revenue due to lockdowns, and were without a label for the first time. But when Perrote and Cosials got together to write again it became clear that their connection, one so special that they call themselves “millionaires in friendship,” would be all they needed to get them through.
