BIO:
La Fonda is an indie rock band from Seattle fronted by Filipino-American sisters, Valerie and Veronica Topacio. Centering their songwriting around the themes of sisterhood, navigating the chaos of adulthood, and finding their footing in the world, the Topacio sisters — along with guitarist Jesse Cole, bassist Bryan Dever, and drummer Jacob Whinihan — create sonically atmospheric, indie-inspired tracks falling somewhere between indie pop and alternative rock. The group released their sophomore album, "We Are Infinite" in April 2023 which was written over the course of the pandemic as La Fonda spent months in the studio with producer Mike Davis (Great Grandpa, Pool Kids) and has opened for a myriad of major bands in Seattle such as Snail Mail and Joseph, along with summer festivals Capitol Hill Block Party, Fisherman's Village and a live DJ set at Day In Day Out. In 2019, the Topacio sisters founded Belltown Bloom, a femme and LGBTQ+ based music festival in Seattle that has hosted indie favorites like Alvvays, Crumb, Wet, Widowspeak, Pussy Riot, Mannequin Pussy, and more.
