Marlango是由女主唱Leonor Watling 連那 瓦特琳所組成的三人團體 對於Leonor Watling 或許你似曾相似，看過她卻又說不出她的名字， 但是如果你常看歐洲電影，看過阿莫多瓦導演的Talk to Her悄悄告訴她， 你一定開始想起她是誰，在劇中的阿麗西亞，那個因交通意外昏迷不醒的芭蕾舞學生， 沒想到除了演戲外，這位清秀佳人也有個好歌喉。，早在93年就拍了第一部電影， 之後便開始有戲劇、舞台劇和電視的演出，而在2004年又多了個歌手身份。 第一次聽到她的聲音，不太相信這是一個剛從歌壇起步的演員所唱的， 感性迷濛是我的第一印象。流行爵士樂團Marlango的另外兩個團員， 一位擁有古典音樂背景負責專輯譜曲的Alejandro，另一位則有豐富爵士背景的Oscar。 以瑪蓮戈（Marlango）為團名，起因於一位西班牙波蒙那（Pomona）的同名詩人， 以及來自蓮娜最喜歡的歌手～湯姆威茲（Tom Waits）的歌曲。 人聲、鋼琴、小號的金三角組合，搭配上三個人自由奔放的音樂創作， 以爵士樂為底的創作，融合了搖滾、Basa Nova等多種風格， 三人不同的音樂背景相互衝擊的結果，造就了這個樂團的精彩演出。 蓮娜除了身為女演員之外，親自為歌曲填詞，此外，她也曾經擔任多個爵士、 靈魂樂團以及馬德里英國國教合唱團的女高音。加上亞歷桑德羅的古典正統學院的鋼琴、 作曲及指揮訓練；以及奧斯卡豐富的放克（Funk）、藍調（Blues）、 拉丁爵士（Latin Jazz）音樂背景，造就了樂團的完美演出 她們有著西班牙諾拉瓊斯的高度評價，但是她的音樂並非諾拉那種鄉村爵士， 她的音樂時而迷濛，時而抒情， 整張專輯大體而言，其實是偏向流行抒情的， 其實真正爵士音樂所佔的成分不多，迷濛近似小酒館的音樂， 不過有古典背景的Alejandro，讓這張專輯中的抒情曲在流行悅耳外展現另一份的典雅。\r \r Biography\r by Evan C. Gutierrez\r Comprised of Leanor Watling, Alejandro Pelayo, and Oscar Ybarra, the pop/jazz/experimental group Marlango began gaining their loyal underground European following in the late '90s. Taking their name from an obscure Tom Waits reference, the pair drew heavily on dark, brooding recording artists and filmmakers like David Lynch and Bjrk for inspiration. Before coming together to record their demo in 1998, Watling had made a name for herself on the jazz and soul scene in Madrid. Her counterpart, Pelayo, was well-versed in classical music, having previously very little experience in the pop world. The pair came together in 1998 and recorded a number of songs with piano and voice. Recent New York transplant Oscar Ybarra (trumpet) heard the material and offered his expertise, quickly becoming the group's third member. The project came to include elements of rock and jazz, developing over time to become their debut release, Marlango. The ensemble toured throughout Spain, Portugal, and Japan, eventually racking up better than 50,000 record sales, earning Marlango their first gold record. Their sophomore release, Automatic Imperfection, hit the market in 2005, which also went on to achieve gold record status. The band's third disc featured renowned recording artists Jorge Drexler and Miguel Bosé as guests, marking the band's steady rise in credibility and public notoriety. Electrical Morning was released in 2007, followed by tireless touring of their native Spain's most reputed small venues, including Fórum Fnac Valencia and Teatro Moderno in Murcia.\r
