The Warning (band)

The Villarreal Vélez sisters were raised in Monterrey, and all received training on piano and various instruments at an early age. Their parents' passion and their playing the video game, Rock Band, led the sisters to rock music. Following the first Rock Band jams, Daniela and Paulina selected guitar and drums as their primary instruments, respectively. After the youngest of the three, Alejandra, selected bass guitar as her primary instrument at about age 7, the sisters decided to form a power trio in 2013.{{Cite web |last=Childers |first=Chad |date=2022-03-14 |title=There's a New Band The Warning You Should Get to Know - Here's How |url=https://loudwire.com/get-to-know-new-band-the-warning/ |access-date=2022-07-04 |website=Loudwire |language=en}}{{cite AV media |last1=Villarreal |first1=Daniela |last2=Villarreal |first2=Paulina |last3=Villarreal |first3=Alejandra |date=March 26, 2019 |title=Press Conference at Gama Music |via=YouTube |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFyS6mKkGPM&feature=youtube&t=1100 |time=18:20 |access-date=March 31, 2019 |format=video |publisher= TW - Gig Videos YouTube Channel}}{{Cite web |last=Madden |first=Emma |date=16 October 2024 |title=THE WARNING: how 3 sisters went from viral sensations to "star power ready" |url=https://www.revolvermag.com/feature/the-warning-how-3-sisters-went-from-viral-sensations-to-star-power-ready/ |access-date=17 October 2024 |website=Revolver}} They learned to play rock songs and posted videos of their performances to YouTube.{{Cite web |last=Dowdell |first=Michael |date=2019-02-11 |title=You've Been Warned: How The Warning went from video game players to Rock Band musicians - Guitar Girl Magazine |url=https://guitargirlmag.com/interviews/youve-been-warned-how-the-warning-went-from-video-game-players-to-rock-band-musicians/,%20https://guitargirlmag.com/interviews/youve-been-warned-how-the-warning-went-from-video-game-players-to-rock-band-musicians/ |access-date=2022-07-04 |language=en-US}}

The Warning said they listen to "every type of music there is, from classical music to pop". They named Metallica, Muse, My Chemical Romance, Pink Floyd, Queen, Paul McCartney, Neil Peart, David Gilmour, Placebo, Badflower, Paramore, K-pop and J-rock as musical influences.{{Cite journal|url=https://guitargirlmag.com/interviews/youve-been-warned-how-the-warning-went-from-video-game-players-to-rock-band-musicians/|title=You've Been Warned: How The Warning went from video game players to Rock Band musicians|journal=Guitar Girl|first=Michael|last=Dowdell|date=11 February 2019|accessdate=25 October 2023}}{{Cite web |last=Olivier |first=Bobby |date=2022-08-31 |title=How the Warning, hard rock's hottest new band, morphed from viral covers to hell-raising shreds |url=https://www.altpress.com/the-warning-error-interview/ |access-date=2022-12-13 |website=Alternative Press}} Their female artist inspirations include Hayley Williams, Esperanza Spalding, Sheila E., and Lzzy Hale.

Muse was particularly singled out by all three sisters as one of their heaviest influences. They mention having family night watch parties of videos of Muse concerts. Daniela (Dany) in particular was heavily inspired by Matt Bellamy, not only his guitar style but also his animated stage presence. In one YouTube video, she singles out the guitar riff in Muse's "Supermassive Black Hole" as a key influence and even encourages aspiring guitarist to learn the riff.{{Cite web |last=Villareal |first=Daniela |title=Dany of The Warning on the influence of Muse and Matt Bellamy |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8YPOesmJYao |url-status=live |website=Youtube}}
