As he did in last year's edition, the Festival Mucho Mas Mayo wants to give back to their loyal fans a musical performance luxury, it sure will not forget, by the frame and the artist.
This year the festival repeats space: the Parque de la Corniche Roman Theatre, in what was the old gate of the villa, shoveling Torres Park Auditorium, but change as an artist.
The surprise is a woman artist, a warm voice and acoustic guitar, folk and pop sounds, Anglo-Saxon language that expresses her most intimate thoughts.

Lopez Alondra Bentley, a British mother and a father of Murcia, starting his musical journey with Ladybird in 2003, later to be part of the First Aid group, and young contest finalist Creajoven promises of Murcia.

Feelings to the surface, a figure exciting, emotional, which uses all its resources to sign a dozen compositions (on the vinyl edition will be thirteen) that speak directly to listeners without recesses, with honesty and affection of their own.
When someone puts a title like that to a disc, because so much of yourself into it, and that surrender, in this case, is seen in every note, every second, displaying the lights and shadows that everyone lives.
Used as vertices of a polygon impossible big female names in history, Ashfield Avenue is a work that stands as a paragon of sensitivity, candor, feelings, moving between bittersweet textures and impressive references: Vashti Bunyan, Joni Mitchell, Nina Simone to Judy Garland, Nick Drake Jolie Holland.
Recorded in Puerto de Santa María (Cádiz) in studies of Paco Loco, the album has received important contributions that have participated in the intimacy and minimalism of a hard thought to detail: starting Sempere Joserra arrangements (also arranger The Good Life among others), production of Cesar Verdú (Schwarz, Citizen), and the shares of Pigmy, Xema Fuertes (Citizen), Joaquín Pascual (Travolta, Mercromina, Surfin Bichos "), Gary Olson (The Ladybug Transistor) and Isobel Knowles (Architecture in Helsinki), among others.
In short, an album full of humanity, the kind that makes you feel alive in every sense, they must keep the tears and euphoria, and that is, with few weapons, with few tools, but with great inspiration, Alondra Bentley has achieved so little that it happens in music, but that takes away when you see: magic.
