Background

edit

Formed in Spain in 2006, their style ranges from pop, rock, indie, and Spanish styled music.[1]

Career

edit

Their debut album, Imposibilidad Del Fenómeno, was released in 2010.[2]

In 2019, they released the album, Oh Long Johnson. The inspiration for the album title came from the Oh Long Johnson viral cat video. The reasoning was that it served as a reminder on how people concentrate on absurd things while the important things pass by.[3][4] The album was a hit. It stayed in the Spanish charts for a total of ten weeks, peaking at #1 in March 2019.[5]

Miss Caffeina competed in Benidorm Fest 2024, the Spanish selection for the Eurovision Song Contest 2024, with the song "Bla bla bla".[6][7] They came fourth in their semi-final on 30 January 2024, qualifying for the final,[8] where they finished last.[9]

In 2024 they composed "Cuando acabe el verano" as the official theme song of the Vuelta a España, a professional cycling race.[10] They performed the song live after the final stage on September 8th.
