A night of memories and vindication
Last Wednesday, the Group Adala commemorated a decade of musical career with a concert that left the marral 62, where the tickets were completely exhausted. With the full of life, the room adopted a festive atmosphere, with young people standing, dancing and singing songs that resonate with a message of freedom in the face of real estate speculation.
The power of artistic collaboration
Adala’s formation, headed by Guillem Simó, united a diverse band that included his brother Quim and other musicians such as bassist Alberto López and trumpeter Neus Aranda. Highlighting the participation of Rapera Elane, who performed ‘Songs for walking’, the artists shared moments that evoked ancestors memories and a deep emotional connection with their audience.
A self -managed trajectory
With an impact of 64,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, Adala has shown that it is possible to create an independent musical path, far from the commercial dynamics that often ruin creativity. Guillem Simó expressed this philosophy with the phrase: ‘The audience creates the artist, not the other way around’, reflecting an approach that values the genuine relationship with his followers.
Revive the great hits
The concert took a tour of the highlights of his career, from the album ‘Blank Fosk’ (2018) to ‘Delta’ (2023). The songs ranged from social struggle to introspection, with shocking visual performances, including the interpretation of Joe Farnarier, who translated the emotional message through movement.
A connection to the public
A highlight was the intervention of Sergi Sala, known as Mr. Oca, who joined the stage to interpret ‘without haste’, while the group hypnotized the audience with its characteristic style that fuses Reggae and poetic rhymes.
The pride of roots
The celebration of neighborhood pride was another key piece of the night. Guillem Simó shared his personal story, highlighting the impact of his environment on his music and activism. His tribute to his parents was a time of deep connection with the community, remembering past struggles to improve public transport.
A message of struggle and hope
As the concert approached the end, the songs emphasized civil resistance and disobedience. With songs like ‘Our ruling’, the public participated actively, turning the event into an act of vindication and hope.
Looking to the future
The 10 -year tour of Adala will continue with more dates this March and April in several Catalan cities. Followers will continue to enjoy their music and the message of change they transmit. A reminder that music can be a powerful tool for social transformation.
