WELCOME TO THE STUY UNIVERSE
BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER, LISTEN TO THE FOLLOWING TWO TRACKS FROM OUR UPCOMING RECORD:
STUY is born and bred out of Brooklyn, NY. The band exists out of necessity. Our aim is not only to raise the voice of our collective community, but to tell the story of what it means to be a Latin band from New York City.

With our new LP, we set forth on telling that story through an authentic and meaningful lense. Taking twists and turns through genre-bending tracks, the mission statement is clear: No fads, no gatekeeping, no billboard human beings. This is the story of a crew clawing their way through their city and the world around them.


Debut Record

STUY is seeking label services and partnerships to support the release of our debut album, along with agents to book shows across the US and Europe. Our full length record was recorded this spring by Jeff Berner and Nelson Espinal at Studio G in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Listen to LP1 below. Learn about our community. See where we’ve been, and where we want to go.

The band’s story began in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn where singer/guitarist Nelson Antonio Hernandez-Espinal grew up and later met bassist Humberto Genão, guitarist Precincts, drummers Luis Ruelas and Jhonny Nunez. STUY formed as a critique of their gentrifying neighborhood and grew into an evaluation of ego and self-identity in their debut EP, Moments of Terribleness.
