Lorelle Meets the Obsolete

Adding an international dimension to the festival programme are Mexican duo Lorelle Meets The Obsolete, whose work blends psychedelic rock, electronic textures, and experimental sound. Known for their intense and immersive live performances, the band’s afternoon show offers something distinctly different within the programme and speaks to audiences looking for something beyond the mainstream.

Originally from Guadalajara and now based in Ensenada, Baja California, Lorelle Meets The Obsolete formed in 2011 around the core duo of Lorena Quintanilla and Alberto González. They quickly caught the attention of the psych scene with their first two albums, On Welfare and Corruptible Faces.

Since signing with UK label Sonic Cathedral in 2013, the band has toured extensively across Mexico, the UK, Europe, and the US. Over the past decade, their sound has gradually evolved from its psychedelic roots toward a more exploratory direction, incorporating analog synths and sonic search reminiscent of bands like Wire.

Along the way, they’ve collaborated with artists like Emma Anderson (Lush), Dälek, and Pye Corner Audio, and have earned fans in the likes of Henry Rollins and Iggy Pop.
