Alouatta started rehearsing in july 2007. In september that year we recorded and released our debut EP "Manos Arriba!".
This led to some exposure on P3 Lab, a show on swedish national radio, dedicated to new upcoming artists and smaller indie labels. And in february 2008 we were voted P3 Lab artist of the month.
March 2008 will see the release of "Animal", a 7" vinyl single featuring three brand new songs.
For now, the plan is to release a full length album later this year, and start touring across Europe.
See you out there!
