Biography

Downtempo Electronic collective UNA formed around 2007 when producer Richard Larsen recorded a demo w/ Jennifer Nice. After hearing her Latin soul vibe they started working on an EP The Rain is Over and Gone and called themselves UNA. Soon DJ Eddie Barajas joined them & a full length LP, entitled “one" was released. Several songs were favored by influential radio station KCRW (home of Morning Becomes Eclectic) & swept the LP to the top position, debuting at #1 in the US for unsigned bands (Mediaguide). Releasing 7 records since, the Independent Music Awards nominated UNA’s Last Time I Saw You for Top Song in 2018, & then in 2019 nominated Hiss for the Fly Top 5 Album of the Year. Nearly every UNA release hit Top 10’s across the country. Now, UNA looks forward to part three of their fly trilogy with The Look in Their Eyes starting off with their pandemic-inspired, sneak peak, soulful single Time Zone. Using mostly downtempo jazz inspired grooves & Wurli electric piano, UNA proceeds to deliver profound pop, lending their vibe to what was called electronica but would otherwise be described as a new form. Their most recent work has been mentioned as a mixture of Dream-Pop, Indietronica, & Alternative R&B, but catching up with these music tags is bewildering. While not re-hashing those ideas, yet remaining openly positive & spirited, UNA is moving into new territory with musical references to many styles. Their sound is distinctive and identifiable. We just call it UNA.
