Els Pescadors De L'escala

Els Pescadors de L'Escala are a herald of Catalonia's rich musical tradition, hailing from the beautiful coastal town of L'Escala in the Costa Brava region. Renowned for their evocative performances that draw deeply from the well of Mediterranean folk music, this ensemble has carved a niche for itself with its soulful interpretations of "havaneres," a genre of music derived from 19th-century Cuban sounds, brought back to Catalonia by sailors. These melodies, characterized by their romantic and sea-related themes, resonate with the experiences of those who spend their lives by the sea, capturing the essence of maritime life and its intertwined loves and losses.

Over the years, Els Pescadors de L'Escala have amassed a considerable discography that celebrates the cultural heritage of Catalonia while experimenting within the boundaries of their genre. Albums like "Genuí" and "Mar D'estrelles" showcase their ability to blend traditional lyrics with contemporary sensitivity, making the old tales of the sea accessible to new generations. Celebratory compilations such as "Sempre Pescadors ”50”" highlight milestones in their career, offering a retrospective of their journey and evolution as artists. With each release, from "Havaneres D'Amor I de Mar" to "Pupurricantus," they continue to enchant audiences both local and international, maintaining their role as custodians of the Catalonian songbook while ensuring that the spirit of the Mediterranean sings on for future generations.
