The Aragonese musician Enrique Bunbury has confirmed that the songUngrateful whore, included in the albumCherry season(2004, shared with Nacho Vegas), was not directed at Eva Amaral, a member of the duo Amaral alongside guitarist Juan Aguirre. Through a Facebook post, he explained that the rumor about this supposed dedication "has no solid basis."

Dolce Vita (Sony, 2024) is the new album by Amaral, the musical project that Eva Amaral (Zaragoza, 1972) and Juan Aguirre (San Sebastián, 1965) have shared since 1993. They attend the ARA in a room at the Barceló Sants Hotel in Barcelona San Jorge Club on June 13th, as part of the Guitar BCN programme. Among other things, they talk about anonymity, the family experience in the post-war period, groups like El Último de la Fila and Fugazi, infernal songs and the Nick Cave concert that changed their lives. "There was a disarray inside us that would never end if we didn't make music," Aguirre recalls.
