David Amo and Julio Navas met in Madrid in the early 2000s, with Amo on guitar and vocals and Navas on piano and composition. They released their debut album 'Canciones de Amor y Dolor' in 2005, which established them with its introspective romantic songs. Their music drew from pop, rock, and Spanish folk traditions without settling neatly into any single category.
Their song 'Better Begin' became particularly well-known, carrying themes of resilience that connected with listeners. Other tracks like 'Light my eyes' and 'Love Is Gone' showed their range within their melodic, emotionally direct style. They followed their debut with albums including 'Pecados de Juventud' and 'Amantes'.
In 2009, they publicly announced their relationship, which brought both support and opposition. Their outspoken positions on LGBTQ+ rights and social justice also drew attention and criticism. Their music and public presence remained intertwined throughout their work together.
