Uga enjoys the music and talent of Gonzalo Hermida

Cheered by the crowd gathered in the festive grounds of the town of Uga, the young artist Gonzalo Hermida finished his concert this Friday, the main day of San Isidro, singing among the public a song that has become an allegory to the two intense hours of music and connection: ‘Que no se acabe la noche’ (May the night not end). Hermida sang and sang, and his fans, indeed, wanted to prolong this wonderful evening of emotional release.

Accompanied by his extraordinary talent for composing and performing, by a captivating charisma, and by a great band of four musicians, working hard, adding to his voice and guitar, Gonzalo Hermida arrived in Uga to share hits from his most recent album, Bandera Libertad (Flag Freedom), but his performance was much more than a cold presentation of a record; his performance was a display of music written with feeling and performed with musical quality, further adorned by the stage presence that the singer-songwriter from Cadiz possesses.

The public enjoyed his live performance in Uga; it is the final picture of the show. Hermida is an approachable artist who connects easily through his lyrics, so it is no coincidence that great Spanish singers scrutinize his universe of compositions to perform.

Gonzalo Hermida shared with Uga about twenty of his songs, themes of love and reflection. ‘La Vida es hoy’ (Life is today), he did not tire of shouting, as a call to live the present to the fullest because we don't know if we will be here tomorrow. And so, he launched sung messages that not only sound good but also move: ‘Nadie se muere de amor’ (No one dies of love), ‘La Bandera’ (The Flag), ‘Esperanza al corazón’ (Hope to the heart), and ‘Que viva la vida’ (Long live life), among other songs.

Uga enjoyed a spectacular night, which, like everything in life, came to an end, but let's see if anyone dares to take away what the town has enjoyed. On behalf of the Yaiza City Council, the mayor, Óscar Noda, and the Councilor for Celebrations, Daniel Medina, thank the Uga Festival Commission and the municipal staff for their work and dedication in organizing and carrying out festivals full of activities and talent.

Likewise, the Administration values the work of the Yaiza Local Police, Civil Protection, and all security and emergency services that ensured public safety, and of course, the participation of the public, residents, and artists, without forgetting the stallholders and sound and lighting technicians.
