Lisbona Sisters
̸
Biografía
- Two sisters, killing it on the regs.These ladies were born in Atlantic City, which, once you know them, explains a lot. They grew up around serious talent, even kicking it with the Rat Pack at early ages (truth). They moved to California before they were in New Jersey long enough to develop accents and became best friends early on. As kids, they made up dance routines to Ace of Base's "The Sign" album and religiously listened to TLC's "Crazy Sexy Cool” until they knew all of Left Eye’s rap verses. It’s these long-standing musical connections and interactive energy that make any Lisbona exposure electric. As DJs, their musical style varies from dance floor to dance floor, prioritizing crowd connection above all else. Genre-wise, nothing is off-limits; house, disco, techno and funk energetically weave their ways into the party, with occasional surprise visits from 80s pop/electro, 90s R&B and who knows what else. While they’ve been acclaimed for rocking massive festival stages and super-club main rooms, they also have the deep-rooted musical knowledge necessary to impress the most judgmental of music-heads at an intimate underground. This why they’ve been cast as a double feature and direct support alongside a considerably diverse array of artists, including Seth Troxler, Jamie Jones, Green Velvet, Diplo, Duke Dumont, Tiga, Lee Foss, Soul Clap, Felix da Housecat, Lauren Lane, Yolanda Be Cool, Bob Moses and many more On the festival circuit, they’ve shined at some of the world’s best, such as Coachella, BPM, WMC (err…MMW), Sunset Campout, HARD Festival and Burning Man. Lisbona's party brand, STRETCH, took the dance music community by storm after its founding in 2012 at San Francisco’s Monarch with an interactive 80s workout theme that reminded party-goers that they could listen to serious-quality house music without taking themselves too seriously—a principle on which they believe rave culture was based in the first place. (Watch the 1-minute STRETCH video, and you will see why). In 2017, they will re-launch STRETCH with a bigger, badder promo video and a tour that will include their current home city of LA, plus San Diego, Lake Tahoe, New York and, of course, San Francisco. Now they've honed their focus in on music production and graceful world domination. At the end of 2017, the sisters released "Sup Squirrelly" on Club Sweat, a division of Australian powerhouse label Sweat It Out, home to internationally-famed artists such as Rüfüs du Sol, Yolanda Be Cool and Cutsnake. Also in the works are collaborative projects with Dirtybird’s Worthy and Crew Love’s No Regular Play as well as a remix for The Kazbah’s Papa Lu. These sisters are all love and fun--with just the slightest edge of charming shenanigans--always keeping their friends and audiences ready for more.
