Nancys Rubias (English: Blonde Nancies) is a Spanish rock band created in 2004 in Madrid.
One of several Spanish revival bands formed in the 2000s, the group was influenced by the 1980s countercultural movement known as La Movida Madrileña, which emerged in the wake of Spain's transition to democracy in 1975. The group's image incorporates glam, camp, kitsch and non-traditional gender expression.
The group originally had 5 members, but continued to exist with 4 after the suicide of band member Susie Pop in 2008. Most of their songs are written by Nacho Canut, the keyboardist for the band Fangoria. The group has released 5 albums.
