LUPA: 'earth, land' in Tagalog; 'she-wolf' in Latin; 'forget, lost' in Indonesian; 'magnifying glass' in Spanish

Lupa is a testament to life through the portals of grief, joy, memory, and presence, channeled by the creative vision of singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, composer, producer, and collaborator Elenna Canlas. Drawing influences from electro & psychedelic funk, global roots & folk, to alt-pop and R&B, Lupa's atmosphere weaves layers of lush and quirky vocals over a deep heavy foundation, builds sonic altars and landscapes inspired by natural forces and kin, and centers its dynamic universe in the celebration of revolution and kapwa. ᜎᜓᜉ

Elenna Canlas, based on Lenape and Canarsie lands in New York City, is a transformative force in music culture. With a career spanning over a decade, she has performed on renowned stages and recorded in celebrated studios worldwide, supporting a multitude of artists and bands including treya lam, Allison Russell, Lollise, Cochemea, Xenia Rubinos, Kirsty Rock, Sinkane, Underground System, and Easy Star All-Stars as a keyboardist, synthesist, percussionist, vocalist, musical director, and producer. She was a facilitator for OneBeat, a cultural exchange program run by Found Sound Nation and the Department of State (which was recently terminated by our current administration), and is an alumna of their 2022 OneBeat Sahara fellowship which included musician culture bearers from the USA and the Maghreb and Sahel regions of North Africa. Elenna was also a Steering Wheel member of the former Brooklyn-based grassroots organization Sound Mind Collective and the co-founder of Womxn Musicians Forum, both independent artist-driven circles that aimed to cultivate movement & growth through community.

I'm a little sad but you don't have to be - unless that's what you want. It's cool with me.
