A Quenlla is a remarkable and seasoned folk music group hailing from Galicia, Spain, deeply rooted in their regional culture and traditions. Emerging onto the music scene in the early 1980s, A Quenlla's melodic narratives are entrenched in Galician folklore and history, often weaving stories of love, pain, and struggle into their lyrics. They are known for their poetic justice to the works of Galician poets, as seen in their poignant album "Na Señardade - A Quenlla Canta a Manuel María," which pays homage to the celebrated Galician writer Manuel María.

Throughout their musical journey spanning more than three decades, A Quenlla has encapsulated the essence of Galician spirit in their compositions, as evident in their anthology "30 Anos con A Quenlla. De Amor, Dor e Loita," which translates to "30 Years with A Quenlla. Of Love, Pain, and Struggle." Their longstanding commitment to their musical roots is also reflected in albums like "Os Irmandiños," "Na Boca Unha Cantiga," and "A Casa Que Nunca Tivemos," drawing inspiration from historical rebellions, traditional songs, and the concept of home respectively. With their latest works, including "As Nosas Cancions II," they continue to enrich the Galician musical tapestry, resonating with audiences who find kinship and solace in the harmonious blend of instruments, poetry, and history that is quintessential A Quenlla.
