The award-winning Rodrigo Cuevas returns to the Canary Islands to offer a series of three concerts in Gran Canaria (25th, Alfredo Kraus Auditorium), Lanzarote (24th, Víctor Fernández Gopar Theater) and Fuerteventura (27th, Palacio de Congresos). The Asturian artist, winner of the 2023 Current Music Award, will present his show La Romería in the Archipelago.
Cuevas has distinguished himself in recent years as one of the most important musicians on the national scene, with a resounding success that has led him to also receive the Arcoíris 2022 Award from the Ministry of Equality, the RNE Critical Eye Award of 2021 for Modern Music, the MIN 2020 Award for Revelation Artist and the "Best Fusion and World Music Album", among other achievements. He is an integral artist who draws from folklore and traditions to offer a global and contemporary proposal like few others in the world.
The show is fueled by humor, social criticism, irony, intelligent denunciation and the sensuality that characterizes Cuevas, with a naturalized use of Asturian and Spanish as vehicular languages, and seasoned with a staging that breaks with the imagery precedent on stage as much as in the wardrobe.
La Romería is a space for celebration and communion, a place that allows the public to feel free of prejudice, "to beat sovereign and loving, libertine and good in the broadest sense of the word good", a show that manifests itself extroverted, hot, ambitious, cheerful, danceable and even epic: bigger.
In addition, it draws on the songs that make up the album Manual de Romería, although some of the hits from his previous work such as Arboleda bien plantada or Rambalín also run through it, an authentic banner that does poetic justice
