In the live debut of the new album, the band has shown a very good tone, with drive and exuberance, singing new songs, yes, but with the shared feeling that in this minimal gap between one project and the other, not much has changed.  </p>]]></description>

One of those who escape any definition, style, or conventional trend that pigeonholes them. On stage, there's no one like him. He began singing in a bar in Jaén in 1989, and since then, he has been touring Catalonia, Spain, and Latin America for more than three decades with his concerts, shows, and performances. <em>performances </em>unclassifiable<em>, </em>Always provocative, yet endearing and magnetic, he balances irreverent banter with blunt truths. Now the singer is celebrating 35 years of career at the Strenes Festival in Girona (he was scheduled to perform in 2020, to commemorate his 30th birthday, but it was canceled due to the pandemic) with an extraordinary double concert on the steps of the cathedral.</p>]]></description>

They still sprinkle some songs with electronic rhythms, but remain faithful to conventional instrumentation and distance themselves from so-called urban music. Roser Cruells, Jan Riera, and Èric Vergés speak a few days before launching a tour that begins on May 4th on the steps of Girona Cathedral, as part of the Strenes Festival program.</p>]]></description>

On her 28th birthday, the Mallorcan singer performed at the Olympia. "It's a somewhat cumbersome theater, not as welcoming as the Palau de la Música, but you still feel the weight of history, of all the musicians who have passed through," she explains at a luncheon with the press at the Moka restaurant on Barcelona's Rambla. On the table is a vinyl copy of the brand-new, in both form and substance, reissue of the album. <em>At the Olympia</em> recorded on April 27th fifty years ago. There is also a copy of the vinyl that Ariola released in 1975. They look similar, but they are not the same because María del Mar Bonet wanted to make "a new vision of the album."</p>]]></description>
