02 // The bands
Three members. One bad idea.TOO OLD TO QUIT.
Matt LaudioLiv StromBilly Marks
NAVARRE // POP-PUNK
A pop-punk trio from Navarre, partying hard and determined to grow without growing old. Songs about nights that run long, Mondays that never end, and the magnificent mess of growing up without forgetting how to have fun.
MATT LAUDIOVOCALS / GUITAR
He came from Sheffield as a child. His grandfather was from Vitoria-Gasteiz. He has a gift for turning the worst Mondays into songs.
LIV STROMDRUMS
Swedish father, mother from Estella-Lizarra. She keeps the beat going when everyone else has already lost count of the rounds.
BILLY MARKSBASS / BACKING VOCALS
From Corpus Christi, Texas. Bass, backing vocals and shirts that are louder than the amplifiers.
03 // An extremely unofficial manifesto
WHO SAID
WE COULDN'T?
Banned 21 Records is an independent label for bands with something to say, and apparently it needs to be said loudly. Different bands. Different sounds. Zero enthusiasm for acting your age.
04 // The people behind the noise
B21 // Founding teamTHE PEOPLE
IN CHARGE.
Three co-founders. One independent record label.
01 / 03
Mónica Argote
Co-Founder & CEOShe was an engineer. She didn't like it. So she did what any reasonable person would do: quit everything and start a record label. Now she runs Banned 21 Records and tries to make our worst ideas sound fantastic.
02 / 03
Roberto Rodríguez
Co-Founder & Talent ManagerHe started out managing small bands, the kind that played to twenty people and got paid in beer. One tiny venue after another, armed with contacts nobody quite knows how he got, he ended up at Banned 21 Records. Now he scouts talent and looks after the bands. Curiously, he's never around when the amps need carrying.
03 / 03
Sabine «Sabi» Satrustegi
Co-Founder & Head of PRShe used to be a journalist. Now she makes sure other journalists talk about our bands. She handles press, communications and promotion at Banned 21 Records. Making noise is easy. Getting someone to listen is another matter.
The catalogue is just getting started
MORE
NOISE.

Something Numbers are just the beginning. Two more bands are waiting in the wings. Names? Not yet.
