It's been just over a year since singer-songwriter Mar Pujol (Prats de Lluçanès, 1999) burst onto the Catalan music scene. With a warm and sweet voice, her work harmoniously blends poetry and music, interweaving the roots of classic folk with more contemporary sounds. Her debut album, Pantry Songs (2024), portrays firsthand the everyday experience of living in rural areas, without frivolity or prejudice. A trained early childhood and primary school teacher, Pujol is already working on her second album and has just received the Alícia Award from the Catalan Academy of Music for emerging talent. This Saturday, June 28, she performs at the (A)phònica in Banyoles, in one of the first concerts of a summer full of engagements across Catalonia.
