and the band from Murcia, Claim!
Penultimate day of The Sea of ​​Music, this Friday, July 26, and we do it with the singer who is called to be everything in the world of music in our country, Amaia.
Pamplona singer and winner of Operación Triunfo 2017 will perform at the Parque Torres Auditorium, after the concert of the Guadalajara folk music duo, Los Hermanos Cubero.
After them, in the Arab Castle, the musical combo, kings of multiculturalism, Fumaça Preta will perform.
Before at CIM, Niño de Elche comes to present us his new album 'Colombiana', produced by another friend of the festival, Eblis Álvarez, of the Meridian Brothers group.
Tickets for the concert are already sold out.
In addition, in the Town Hall square, the Ghanaian musical group, the young Ghanaian group Fra! Will perform, and in the CIM square, the last concert of the We Are Here stage will take place with the Murcian band, Claim !.
With 20 years, few people know what he wants to do in this life.
Amaia Romero does know.
In fact, I always knew it.
She was going to be music.
And more than the what, a what many would dream of, the surprising thing in it was the how.
Every time you go on stage something happens.
His voice is beautiful, moldable and rich.
Either with a couplet or with a pop hit, either alone at the piano or with a band.
Since it first appeared on the screen, everyone knew it was special.
There is already a title for his first album 'But nothing happens'.
Also, departure date: the month of September.
And we know three advance themes: 'A new place', 'The lightning' and 'Nobody could do it'.
Without a doubt, the first work of Amaia Romero is the most anticipated national pop album of this 2019. Amaia will be the protagonist of the penultimate day of La Mar de Música this July 26.
What would happen if we put together the jacks and followers of Castilian, with American rural music?
The answer could be given by Enrique and Roberto Ruiz Cubero, artistically known as Los Cubero Brothers.
Authentic musicians called to make a small revolution.
They are the bastard children of Bill Monroe and Agapito Marazuela, a perfect pairing where nothing squeaks.
They do something unique: unite the sounds of Alcarria with the country.
The result is as impressive as it is delicious.
They had published several albums until in 2016, the damn cancer took Olga, the wife of Quique Cubero.
A personal tragedy that gave rise to a good handful of songs in which the musician opened in the channel to show all his most intimate feelings.
That is 'Quique draws sadness', the work that brings them to The Sea of ​​Music.
Fumaça Preta brings together elements of tropicalia, psychedelic rock, funk fuzz, concrete music, acid house, radio electronics, hair metal, voodoo and African, Brazilian and Latin rhythms.
Whispers, voices and shouts in Portuguese, stratified sounds through time, tropical rhythms and much fuzz fight at the same time for supremacy, generating results that rarely coincide with what one expects.
Fumaça Preta took the world by surprise at the end of 2014 with the release of his self-titled debut in 'Soundway Recording', a "tropical concoction," as described by The Wire.
Live, they are known for their explosive energy, their forcefulness and the delirium of disparate influences that breathe into the public a bewildering mix of grooves and headers.
In 2019, they will present a new album.
'Colombiana' is the name of the new production of Niño de Elche, with which it approaches the Sea of ​​Music again.
There was no title for this bet at the beginning of 2018 when Paco Contreras Molina, always faithful to his groundbreaking, curious and anarchic spirit, contacted Bogota's Eblis Álvarez, Meridian Brothers, proposing to serve as producer and instrumentalist of an album still foggy, of which there was no certainty beyond giving a twist to the searches of Elche, adjacent to the activism with 'Voces del Extremo' (2015), parodic and libertine with 'Anthology of heterodox flamenco singing' (2018), latest adventures to his name that were appearing while imposing his rubric of former flamenco discarded in itinerant bands such as Exquirla and RaVerdial.
'Colombiana' focuses on flamenco as a round trip song.
In that fruitful relationship in the wide Afro-Andalusian Caribbean.
It is not about archeology, it is rather a record of anticipation.
The flamenco is coming here.
"Mixture" means in Akan the name FRA!
And of course they are.
Fusion even of ethnic groups, each of the six components comes from a different geographical and cultural area in this country that has been giving economic, democratic and cultural campaigns for years.
"The music we produce comes from technical skill, melodic phrases and progressive roots, based on our Afrocentric heritage."
With four years of experience, they began, like many other groups, playing versions.
In August 2018, the band released their first album, entitled 'Fra! Ternity', a work of eleven cuts that travels through afro-pop, indie rock and soul.
"With ingenuity and a certain sarcasm, the letters of Claim try to flee from verses that are too transcendent and seek to focus the focus on the most common acts, on day-to-day situations or at times we have all been through."
So say the verses of the promotional sheet of 'Sofa Paradise', the second album of Claim !.
Claim !, is a Murcian band formed by Adrián Riquelme, Ramón Gómez, Juandi Pascual and Gonzalo Magaña, who work rhythms, melodies and tonalities with a notoriously playful and danceable intention.
With this new work they have managed to channel their sound, have deepened more in the daily life of their songs and have come closer than ever to their own identity.
