AlphaWhores explain:
“Beautiful Music, Awful Person” features classic AlphaWhores infectious grooves, razor-sharp harmonies, and a riff that’d make Queens of the Stone Age nod in approval. Wrapped in danceable swagger, it’s a scathing takedown of the scene’s parasites: those who chase shortcuts while real artists do the work.
The new album You Can Come Out Now was produced by London, UK based double-Grammy Award winner Adrian Bushby (Foo Fighters, Muse) who travelled to the band’s home country, Panama, to record it. It was mixed by the band’s long-standing collaborator, US based Evan Rodaniche. Evan also mixed their debut album I (“one”) and recent single ‘Over and Over’, which is a cover of the Hot Chip classic re-created in AlphaWhores’ brooding signature style. You can watch the ‘Over and Over’ video here.
Hailing from Panama, AlphaWhores are Massiel Pinzón and Juan Carlos García de Paredes and have been working together for over 20 years when they were both members of the Panama based alternative rock band Mabí.
In 2021, following the end of longstanding personal relationships for them both, Massiel and Juan Carlos found themselves in the studio together jamming and making new music, as a way to help them process the changes happening in their lives. The studio sessions were so successful that they decided to make it into a new music project and AlphaWhores was born.
You Can Come Out Now sees the band further develop their eclectic mix of heavy styles infused with their distinct harmonies and searing palette of filthy riffs. It follows the release their debut album I (listen here), in January 2024, which features the singles ‘Raw Nerve‘ and ‘Same Team‘.
AlphaWhores just completed their debut 17 date headline European Tour, with shows in Germany, Austria, Denmark and the UK. More dates are being booked now.
