CALDO

Caldo is a musical proposal focused on creating new habitats for the melodies of the Galician oral tradition. Through an acoustic trio consisting of voice and tambourine, violin and guitar, Caldo manages to bring together contemporaneity and tradition in a natural way.

With one album and two singles released, they have played in several important festivals of the peninsular folk scene, such as the Rubrifolkum in Sant Boi de Llobregat, WIM Festival in Burgos, Festival de Música Noroeste (Braga-Portugal) or even the Festival de Ortigueira, among many others.

Caldo were winners of the Martín Codáx Award in the Folk Music category and the Fran Pérez NARF Award in 2020.

They are currently working on their second album and have already released a preview, "Acorro", a song along with a video clip created by the artist Montse Piñeiro where they explore a more progressive sonority, almost bordering on punk. In this new stage, they decide to reformulate the lyrics taken from the oral tradition to elaborate their own discourse adapted to the new realities.

Caldo manages to immerse you in their imaginary of tradition, lyrics and soundscapes, achieving a sense of belonging to a community and identity of their own.
