Oh So Quiet has becomes a Kings favorite. Following a move to the UK, “Oh So Quiet” began as a solo home project for Argentine-born Lucas Zavala. However, feeling too shy to sing some of his songs, Lucas asked his sister, Malena, to fill in. Following this they gathered band members Harry Clarke, Axel Martinez and Nick Wallis to complete the five-piece. Beautifully layered with syncopated rhythms and timbres of the Latin Americas, their soaring melodies and infectious, indie sounds have gained support thus far at the likes of XFM, 6 Music, BBC London, Line of Best Fit, Wild Honey Pie and Clash.
