ISLA FORTUNA (CY)
Thursday, August 1st / Fengaros 2019
Isla Fortuna were created in the summer of 2013. Their music is a combination of heavy rock riffs, psychedelic and atmospheric elements, incorporating influences from a diverse background of music genres, including desert, progressive rock, trip hop and many others. Since the band’s inception, the members remained dedicated to creating their music, even during periods that found them apart, living in different cities, even countries, between Cyprus and Britain. The first live performance of the band took place during the summer of 2015, at Into the Limbo, a psychedelic rock music festival in Cyprus. This is where the first songs of ‘Verity’ were presented. In January 2017, Isla Fortuna supported 1000mods in their hometown, Larnaca, receiving a lot of positive feedback. In late 2017, Isla Fortuna went into the studio to record their debut album, ‘Verity’, which includes 8 songs. Verity was released in spring of 2018 and the band appeared with ‘The Great Machine’ and in ‘Power of the Night’ festival. Isla Fortuna are currently writing new material and playing live.
