Falquez is an alternative rock band from Miami known for its genre-blending sound encompassing elements of metal, shoegaze, and power pop led by Colombian-American artist Daniel Falquez.
Falquez's musical odyssey began in the late '90s with bands like <a href="spotify:artist:6FdMiIaCDrzqbKs9u3DaSj" data-name="EMEX">EMEX</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4yUXvTTWtRDP5UzINqZK22" data-name="Ramshackles">Ramshackles</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:6wmdn8hLZGD0PQ9vlqvsL5" data-name="Pyrojet">Pyrojet</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:2NTThsrBkfbZ8EvVuXLaR7" data-name="Death Becomes One">Death Becomes One</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:7DKpUiUvFkrmUP7D8btw8L" data-name="Father of Zeus">Father of Zeus</a>. This experience has yielded a distinct sound, where post-grunge rawness meets introspective alt-rock and the sheer power of metal.
The debut album "<a href="spotify:album:4EFXR4kohKn4XYLrXmpFIZ" data-name="Known Behaviors">Known Behaviors</a>" was released in May 2024. Songs like "<a href="spotify:album:6CrDGvWFRB08zwcYQ48fBF" data-name="Severed Sun">Severed Sun</a>" ignite a call to action for a fragile planet, while "<a href="spotify:album:4sdYazH6mdTltyJa8KMTI5" data-name="Solemn Eyes">Solemn Eyes</a>" embarks on a nuanced emotional journey. "<a href="spotify:track:37eVCP5UqzeUuf8BP7aNbk" data-name="Sometimes">Sometimes</a>" unfurls with dreamy textures and introspective lyrics. And "<a href="spotify:album:0wB1Bw4FYSiKouiitS8EDp" data-name="The Platypus">The Platypus</a>," a sonic whirlwind, celebrates the unexpected, the unconventional, and the thrill of being uniquely ourselves.

It is a testament to Daniel's belief in the power of music to convey raw emotions and explore the human experience.
