GET TICKETS Who Are Belako? Formed in 2011 in Mungia, Biscay, Belako is a powerhouse band that has been making waves across the globe. The band is composed of Josu, Lore, Cris, and Lander, who have taken the music world by storm with their fierce and eclectic sound. From humble beginnings playing covers, they evolved into a genre-bending force to be reckoned with, delivering a thrilling mix of punk, post-punk, and electronic music that has earned them international acclaim. Belako quickly gained recognition after winning the prestigious Maketa Lehiaketa contest in 2012, which paved the way for performances at iconic festivals like BBK Live. From there, they skyrocketed to success, playing at festivals like Reading & Leeds, Primavera Sound, and SXSW, and sharing the stage with legends like Elvis Costello and Crystal Fighters. Their Unique Sound What sets Belako apart is their ability to seamlessly blend genres into a sound that’s entirely their own. They fuse raw punk energy with the hypnotic elements of electronic music, creating a retro-futuristic vibe that’s both rebellious and refined. Their music is as versatile as their influences—whether it’s driving guitar riffs, moody synths, or infectious basslines, they know how to keep listeners on their toes. Despite primarily singing in English, they’re also proud to incorporate their native Basque language into their music, adding an extra layer of depth and authenticity to their tracks. Their albums, like 2020’s critically acclaimed Plastic Drama, reflect their evolution as artists, tackling themes of modern life with razor-sharp lyrics and unrelenting energy.
