The Warning are a trio of sisters from Monterrey, Mexico. Today, they are in their late teens and early twenties. The oldest two started playing piano at three and five. BUT, all three have been playing professionally for many years, now. Amazingly, they grew up bi-lingual, attending a Catholic school in Monterrey. So most of their original songs are in English. I would describe their sound as hard rock, bordering on heavy metal, but very dynamic, with everything from angsty ballads to full on head banging thrash metal. For three Mexican kids who have written a double album, a single album, and an EP, all in English before 2022, they have quite a catalog.

Six years ago, they made this Ted Talk at the University of Nevada:

Two years ago, Metallica invited them to perform a tribute version of Enter Sandman on their "Blacklist" album, in collaboration with Canadian artist, Alessia Cara:

The Warning have toured the USA, Canada, parts of the UK and Germany, Chile and Argentina, and more. Their personal success story is fascinating and inspiring. Their music is polished. This is a KICK ASS band that has performed hundreds of gigs live, opening for Guns & Roses, Halestorm, and other rock acts. They've sold out their own concerts several times, performed at festivals of 50,000+, and were recently part of the Video Music Awards on MTV. Their two crazy performances there were "one take wonders." Those two performances flabbergasted the MTV staff:

https://youtu.be/97Pxe9KTgJc?si=VZ_Q8I5yGDKzwuZWI don't know when I've heard such an amazingly talented, polished, or determined group of young musicians, song writers, and performers. This is a band that sounds as good or better live than they do in the studio (they tend to agree). They are the real deal.
Dany, the lead guitarist and one of two lead singers, has been given two brand new custom guitars by veteran rock performers that The Warning opened for on various tours. SpectorBass, an instrument company, made a custom five string bass guitar for Alejandra, with the band logo inlaid on the neck. That's how much respect these ladies have in the industry.
Enjoy!
