El Niño Mudo

About El Niño Mudo

Years ago... "a mute boy" lead astray dreamed about forming a rock band, basically to express his feelings towards the world.

He started to create 'a new language', a way through which the 'personal' managed to expand, but without the common filter of prejudice and conventionalism: EL NIÑO MUDO was born.

Doing everything in its own way, its independent music is born from inspiration. Its gigs recreate an intimate world full of emotions reflecting energy, power and creativity: Live sincerity.
Even now, after years of existence, various insults, live gigs and the leave of various members, the drive behind the band still is Alex DeSoto (ex-Dutch "IN RUINS" drummer).

The trio recorded their first CD together in 2008: "CONTRADICCIONES". Ten songs about feelings of life, emotions, reality and its contradictions.
Included as bonus track is the song "Angel of love", an acoustic version of "Simplifica" (in English) with Maggie Emma Reeze on vocals backed up by Álex de Soto.

In 2010 EL NIÑO MUDO recorded "Almas Perdidas", a song they worked on in 2009, having all music re-recorded in Australia but all vocals mixed in after Araña recorded them in Madrid (Spain).

EL NIÑO MUDO continues its journey having the young and talented musicians Alberto "SmokeHead" Sierra on guitars & Álex de la Vela (expired link). "Araña" completing the band, as lead vocalist and bassist.
Although on opposite sides of the planet the focus and the strength remain. The band is clearly turning heads, broadening their horizon by applying new styles of playing, recording and especially, listening...
