Rising pop star and formal member of Colombian boy band Piso21 Llane, has released his first studio album “Fino”. We got to sit down with Llane to talk about his first album and we gathered four fun facts fans should know before(or after) listening to “Fino”.
THIS IS HIS FIRST
Even though Llane is no stranger to the industry, this is his first studio album through Warner Music Latina and his first album release as a solo artist. It took Llane two years to complete the album “Fino” but fans got a glimpse of what was to come with singles like “Más de ti”, “Como Antes” and “Alcancia” Ft. Reik. Needless to say he poured his heart into this project so fans can expect the best from him.
TO BE FINO IS TO BE EXCELLENT
The album name “Fino” represents everything he has strived to be as an artist and an entertainer and what he believes everyone should strive to be. The artist expressed that ‘Fino” is someone who is excellent in their craft, whatever it may be. In our interview Llane said in Spanish “…siento que los seres humanos tenemos mucho potencial y debemos trabajar en buscar ¿para que somos bueno? y empezar a trabajar mucho en eso.”
THE TRACK LIST IS A VIBE
Be ready to dance, vibe, cry, sing and rock out to “Fino”. This is an album you’ll want to invite the girls over and have a wine night listening party. From the beginning of the album to the eleventh track, you will experience the highs and lows of Llane’s romantic baladas and edgy lyrics. Not one song is like the next. In our interview Llane said he’s really inspired by artists like Harry Styles, Rauw Alejandro, Paulo Londra & The Weeknd to name a few.
THE ALBUM COVER IS A WORK OF ART
I think we can all agree that humans are naturally attracted to something by how it looks. That’s why first impressions are so important especially when it’s your first album cover as an artist.
To find inspiration for his album cover, Llane started listening to his album and visualizing the aesthetic of the cover. Llane immediately thought of Miami-based fashion photographer Riocam. Riocam is a high-fashion photographer who has helped shaped the fashion industry in Miami. During their exchange, Riocam pointed out Llane’s tattoos of lips that rests on his left forearm and suggested they start with that for the cover. Riocam then photographed Llane being, well himself. It only took one shot to capture the image for the cover and the rest is a work of art.
