“Gran Moreno continue bridging the gaps between psychedelia and mass audiences… This track operates with two sides of the storytelling coin, one operating with pop sensibility and hooks, while the other toys with smoky psychedelia and bombast.” — Austin Town Hall
“I’m holding a place in my notes for best debut albums of 2026 for El Sol… They have the energy of a young outfit and the self-awareness to know what they’re about in terms of songwriting.” — The Obelisk
"Heavy guitars and a pounding drum beat give way to Black Sabbath-level sinister vocals to make for a song that rages and crashes like the swells of a heavy ocean storm." -- Glide Magazine
Austin duo Gran Moreno share a new single, "Las Montañas" from their forthcoming debut studio album El Sol today exclusively via Glide Magazine HERE and Bandcamp HERE.
Previous singles from the album are available to hear and share on all DSPs HERE.
Gran Moreno emerges as one of the most captivating voices in the new wave of psychedelic rock. With a sound rooted in analog warmth and expansive textures, the Austin-based band crafts songs that feel like sonic mirages — equal parts groove, grit, and atmosphere. Their music lives at the intersection of distortion and introspection, where hypnotic riffs, heavy rhythms, and emotionally charged melodies build immersive landscapes that demand to be felt as much as heard.
At the core of Gran Moreno is a deep commitment to storytelling through sound. Their upcoming album is a conceptual two-part release: Side A: El Sol and Side B: La Luna. Each side represents a different emotional plane — El Sol radiates urgency, energy, and clarity, while La Luna leans into shadow, mystery, and reflection. The first release, El Sol, captures the band at full intensity, delivering a vivid, unfiltered introduction to their evolving identity.
On stage, Gran Moreno transforms their sound into a full-body experience. Their live shows blend sonic power with visual depth, pulling audiences into a shared trance that feels both personal and communal. As they continue to shape their universe with bold creativity and a fierce independent spirit, Gran Moreno isn’t just making music — they’re building a world of their own.
El Sol will be available on LP and download on January 16th, 2026. Pre-orders are available HERE.
