Lulanca Music
Lulanca Music is a Spanish pop music duo, consisting of Lara Younes Falguera (born September 5, 1991) and Luis Altmann Solanes (born March 8, 1993). Lara is the group's vocalist, while Luis serves as a pianist and producer. The name "Lulanca" is derived from the initial letters of their names, "Lu" for Luis and "La" for Lara, although the origin of the remainder of the name is unknown. Their musical style includes pop, ballads, and soul/r&b, gaining recognition through covers on platforms like YouTube, accumulating over 300,000 views.

Early Live and Youth
Luis received piano education in Barcelona from the Royal College of Music, reaching the sixth level by age five. At 16, he joined a band playing jazz, blues and bossa nova, comprising trumpet, flute, bass guitar, drums and piano. Following disagreements among band members, the group disbanded after two years of performances across Barcelona. At 18, Luis diverged from his academic path to xplore composition and develop his personal style independently.

Lara pursued vocal training independently, undertaking private lessons at 18. As a soloist, she adopted the artistic name Larayf, blending her first name with the initials of her surname, Younes Falguera. Engaging with established rap artists such as Llausi, Yaina, Mc Redecky, and Sickno, Laraâ€™s collaborations culminated in the release of Mi misiÃ³n in 2012, winning Blacorbday Radio Bcn's competition. This led to the release of three collaborative singles. In the same year, Larayf launched Sinopsis, her debut solo EP, featuring Luisâ€™s piano contributions on the track A pies descalzos.

The Creation of the Band
Lara and Luis met at a New Year's Eve party in 2013, coinciding with their mutual interest in composing music. They collaborated on "A pies descalzos/Bare Feet," a ballad featured on Larayf's EP. Formalising their collaboration, Lara and Luis created Lulanca Music in 2017. Sharing, since then, covers on YouTube that reached more than 50.000 views garnering viral attention.

Singles
Their debut single, "A pies descalzos," released in 2013, is a song dedicated to the consequences of the 2012 Tsunami near the Indonesian province of Aceh. In 2022, they professionally recorded Luis's first composition, "Libre," entering the preselection for the Benidorm Fest, although the song is not available on any platform.

Performances
During Larayf's EP promotion, Lara and Luis participated in various live events, notably the "Noise off Festival" program in Madrid, sponsored by Orange, and the "XXXX" festival in Sitges. As Lulanca Music, sporadic performances began in 2019, motivated by social media requests.Â

Transitioning from cover recordings, they started to prioritize live performances, releasing over 40 YouTube videos between 2017 and 2021. In 2021, they expanded their performances to include restaurants, hotels, company events, weddings, and birthdays.Â

Weddings became their favourite celebrations, aligning with their style and comfort. Lulanca Music currently averages 10 weddings annually, as reported by bodas.net. Social media details recurring performances at Hotel Vichy Catalan (Girona) and the Palau Vell Restaurant (Barcelona). Their wedding packages include ceremony and aperitif options, featuring personalized song selections for the couple. With a repertoire of over 100 songs spanning multiple languages, their performances incorporate percussion and instrumentals to enhance the atmosphere.

Recording Process
Lulanca Music operates a home studio for recording purposes, located at Luis's residence. All tracks available on platforms like YouTube and Spotify are produced in this studio.Â The recording process entails meticulous attention to detail by Luis and Lara. Initial tracks are established with a piano base, supplemented by additional instruments as desired (e.g., strings, drums). The recording culminates with vocal tracks and backing vocals. Subsequently, Luis dedicates several days to mixing each song, ensuring optimal quality. Lara contributes insights, and both artists collectively determine the final recording outcome.
