Guitarricadelafuente, Mushka, Rusowsky and Yung Beef: the highlighted names of the Festival B 2026

BarcelonaFestival B of urban music begins this Thursday at the Parc del Fòrum in Barcelona, where artists such as Guitarricadelafuente, Rusowsky, Yung Beef, Mushka, Maria Arnal, La Plazuela, Natalia Lacunza, Mvrk, D. Valentino, Sanguijuelas del Guadiana and Claudio Montana, among others. The three-day passes are already sold out and few day tickets remain available through the official website.

Born in 2015 with the intention of being a showcase for the alternative scene, the festival has consolidated itself in recent years as one of the national benchmarks for urban music in a broad and heterogeneous sense. The musical event, previously known as the Festival Cara B, has hosted reference names such as C Tangana, Bad Gyal, Carolina Durante, Cruz Cafuné, Sen Senra and Judeline. In this year's edition, stand out the additions of artists such as Guitarricadelafuente, who will perform on Saturday, September 19, with a repertoire built from the album Spanish leather (Sony), a fusion between tradition, pop, and electronic music. The artist has been trending these days for his starring role in La bola negra, the film by Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi that has been selected to represent Spain at the Oscars and which will arrive in theaters on September 25.

Another addition is that of Natalia Lacunza, who will present N2STAL5IA (Universal), an album that expands the artist's sonic universe with pop, electronic, and R&B. The Navarrese singer performs this Thursday at 8 PM on the Voll-Damm stage. Also performing is Raly, one of the new emerging voices of the urban scene. Originally from Igualada, the artist explores electronic textures: this Thursday at 7 PM, on the Adidas Originals stage.

With a format that combines four simultaneous stages, the main one will host on Friday the acts of the singer and actor Leïti, the Vilassar-born Mushka, and a veteran of the genre such as Yung Beef. The next day it will be the turn of the Barcelona native Gavina.mp3, the minimalist mix by PabloPablo, the universe of Rusowsky, and the indie pop of the group Cupido, formed by rapper Pimp Flaco and the psychedelic rock band Solo Astra.

Stage B will host artists such as the Madrid native Mvrk, the duo from Barcelona Alosa, who explore traditional music, Mari Arnal from Badalona, and the fusion of flamenco, funk, and electronic music from the group La Plazuela. At the Adidas Originals Stage, you will be able to see the proposals of Ángeles Toledano, from Jaén, the Madrid native Rebe, a benchmark of bedroompop, a subgenre in which recording and production are done from home; the experimental electronic music of Tristán!, and La Élite, the duo originally from Tàrrega of electronic punk who already performed at the 2024 edition.
