Biography

Lionel and Marie Limiñana met during high school. After 15 years of participating in various bands, selling records in Perpignan, and organizing concerts, they founded The Limiñanas in 2009. Two tracks shared on Myspace helped the band become noticed and signed to independent labels Trouble In Mind and HoZac.
During their early years, distributed exclusively by American labels, the duo gained greater notoriety in the United States than in France. In 2010, the series Gossip Girl used the track Down Underground in an episode of its fourth season.
In 2015, following a joint album with Pascal Comelade, the band signed to French label Because Music, who reissued their discography in Europe and benefited the group from increased promotion.
In 2016, British magazine Mojo invited The Limiñanas to record a version of The Kinks' Two Sisters as part of a cover album, the first time the band worked with Anton Newcombe of The Brian Jonestown Massacre.
In 2018, the release of Shadow People, produced in Berlin by Anton Newcombe, gained the band a wider audience: magazine Rock & Folk offered the duo the cover of their January issue, and Canal+ made Shadow People its album of the week.
In 2019, their debut album single Migas 2000 was chosen as one of the recurring themes in the American Netflix series Russian Doll. Later that year, The Limiñanas collaborated with actress Emmanuelle Seigner's next album and Anton Newcombe in the group "L'Épée" to release an album Diabolique.
Since 2021, their music is published by the label Berreto Music and appears to be still distributed by Because Music.
In 2022, The Limiñanas released the single La Musique, a previously unreleased track written and performed with Areski Belkacem. It appeared their 2022 compilation Electrified.
