The Altons are one of the defining groups in the new West Coast souldies movement, emerging from Southeast Los Angeles with a sound rooted in romance, harmony, and classic soul.

As one of the flagship acts on Daptone’s Penrose imprint, they rose from sold-out local clubs to major stages like Austin City Limits and Corona Capital. At the heart of the band are the intertwined vocals of Adriana Flores and Bryan Ponce, whose chemistry gives their music warmth and intimacy.

Backed by Caitlin Moss on drums and Chris “Bolillo” Manjarrez on bass, The Altons pair tender songwriting with rich, organic groove. Their debut album, Heartache in Room 14, marks a bold new chapter, refining their vulnerable, melodic sound for an even wider audience in 2025 worldwide.
