Mar Endins, a distinguished group from the vibrant lands of Catalonia, has staked its claim in the folk and traditional music scenes, specifically focusing on the genre of Habaneras. Their musical journey is deeply rooted in the sea-faring traditions of Catalonia and the broader Spanish coast, where the genre of Habaneras originates—a rhythmic and melodic testimony to the historical exchanges between Cuba and Spain. Through their extensive discography, including the "Habaneras de Siempre" series and the "Gran Colección de Habaneras," Mar Endins not only preserves but breathes new life into this traditional form, making it accessible and relevant to modern audiences.

Their efforts to capture the essence of Catalonia’s musical heritage don’t stop with Habaneras; with releases such as "Cançons de la Nostra Terra Catalana" and "Havaneres De Catalunya", Mar Endins delves deeper into the rich tapestry of Catalan folk music, showcasing its diverse range and emotional depth. Noteworthy performances, such as those captured in "Directíssim Palau De La Música" and the sequels "Havaneres al Palau" and "Havaneres al Palau 2", highlight their prowess in live settings, bringing the communal and celebratory spirit of Habaneras to the prestigious stages like the Palau de la Música Catalana. Through their dedication to their craft, Mar Endins stands as a vital custodian of Catalan musical traditions, inviting listeners to explore the depths of the Mediterranean soul.
