The Menorcan group of popular music,
S'Albaida
is in fashion. Since their
latest
record "Mateixos Temps" came out, it has not stopped
being
in the news in all the Catalan media, both because of the excellent
quality of the record and their numerous performances in the Balearics
and Catalunya.
The
official
presentation of the record at the Teatre Principal in Maó was
a success and at present they are on tour, with a busy calendar that includes
performances all over Spain. Recently they have performed in Lleida, Ciutadella,
Alaior and Llubí, and the next performances on Menocra will take
place in Punta Prima (August 14), at the
Pedreres
de s'Hostal (August 16), and s'Arenal d'en
Castell (August 17).
A little later, on August 21, they will go to Prada de Conflent to participate
in the
Universitat Catalana d'Estiu,
on August 22 they will travel to Terrassa, on 23 to Pineda de Mar and on
September 7 they will reach Madrid. Also in September they will perform
in Igualada (10) and in the Mercat de Música Viva in Vic (14).
They will also be in Barcelona on September 21 for the fiestas La Mercè, in
Lluc (September 28) and in the SEBIME fair in Maó on October 12 and Manresa on November
1.
