Summary

Alma Muñeca is a three piece art pop group based in Austin, TX. Formed in 2024, the band is lead by Cocó Allegra and produced by Ernesto Grey (credits with Font, Farmer’s Wife, The Opera, Almost Heaven, etc). Cocó, a Panamanian immigrant, settled in Austin five years ago. It wasn’t until she met collaborator, Ernesto, that she fully committed to writing and performing live. The band’s sound is inspired by 90’s icons such as Bjork and contemporaries like FKA Twigs and Rosalia. Through their live performances, Cocó aims to highlight and lift up the queer and Latino community. The band’s debut EP, “Deseo un Brillo”, was released on October 24, 2025. Since then they’ve continued building momentum in the Austin scene by opening for bands such as Sextile and Snooper. The band is in the process of relocating to Brooklyn, NY, where they hope to expand on their already defined sound and fanbase.
