Attawalpa’s debut album ‘Presence’ was recorded between New York’s Electric Lady Studios with Binky Griptite (The Dap-Kings) and Caito Sanchez (Charles Bradley) and London’s Eastcote Studios and Off Licence Recordings with Matt Allchin co-producing. The album features Henry Danowski (drums), Haydn Wynn, Adam Sopp, Matt Jones, Misty Miller and Isabella Ramsay.
“The main theme of ‘Presence’ is love, loss and longing”, Luis recalls, “Generally speaking, these 10 songs document how I observe, record and explore my experiences as the world moves through and around me. The songs represent my recent collaborations, limitations, and a subjective sense of humour. These songs connect to the feelings in my body. The general theme of ‘Presence’ is a simple but challenging desire to stay in the present, stay connected and not dissociate from the moment.”

Last year, Luis Felber and Matt Allchin entered the film world, scoring Sony Picture Classics release ‘Sharp Stick’ and producing the soundtrack for Amazon Films ‘Catherine Called Birdy’ alongside award-winning composer Carter Burrell.
Attawalpa is currently working on new EP ‘Experience’, which is set to be released later this year. Attawalpa’s band consists of Henry Danowski (drums), Maurizio Ravalico (percussions), Matt Allchin (bass), Haydn Wynn (cello), Adam Sopp (keys) and Freya Hicks (viola).
