Bio
Pipas are Lupe Nuñez-Fernandez and Mark Powell, a boy-girl duo on
Matinee Recordings (USA) and Annika (Spain). They live nearby in east London and roam the streets in search of bagels and coffee, free running farm animals and free time to continue creating newer and greater songs. Short, bittersweet, with dreamy mac beats and Spanish guitar.
With three albums, a couple of singles, numerous compilation appearances and a spot of international touring in the past three years, they've set a reckless pace for themselves! They have a certain disregard for the rigours and cliches of being a band. i.e. paying your dues, practicing a lot, being "tight" and owning amplifiers.
Mark is Anglo-American and Lupe is Spanish/80's American TV. They met in the US in and around the Philadelphia area many years ago but only started to write songs together when they both ended up living in London.
