Farewell to a musical career

After fifteen years of intense activity, Smoking Souls is preparing to say goodbye to the stage. With four last concerts, two in Barcelona, ​​one in Madrid and an end in Pego, the group reflects on its history and the meaning of this closure. We talked to Pau Camps, the band’s guitarist, to know his feelings in the face of this transition.

A farewell full of emotions

Goodbye is intense for peace. ‘It is a liberation, but also a moment of deep sadness,’ he shares. Music has been a fundamental part of his life, and now, the end of this chapter causes a mixture of nostalgia and satisfaction. “It’s a personal mourning, because we know we will not interpret those topics again,” he adds.

The decision to close a cycle

The decision to make a definitive pause has not been forced by the music industry, but has arisen from the group’s own reflection. “After a year of inactivity and reflection, we decided that it was time to close this cycle,” says Pau. Their career has been marked by self -management, and this has allowed them to be true to themselves to the end.

Remembering the moments lived

When it comes to talking about the last concerts, Paul reveals his feelings. ‘Before the tour began, he felt a mixture of nervousness and emotion. During the concerts, nostalgia invaded me. I remember so much lived moments! ‘, He says. The final concert in Pego will be a time of reflection and farewell, but also of liberation for Peace, which has plans to devote himself to other projects.

Musical and future legacy of Valencian music

Speaking of the state of music in Valencian, Pau reflects on generational relief. “Music always finds its way, and although there are changes, new voices and groups will appear,” he says. They have witnessed how music evolves, and believes that the new generation will play an important role in the future of the language.

The challenge of preserving the tongue

Paul also addresses the situation of the language in the Valencian Country, noting that the rise of the far right has jeopardized the advances in its preservation. ‘We are in a constant battle to defend our language. The current situation requires constant mobilization, ” he warns. Their previous experience helps them meet the challenges with resilience.

Reflections on politics and language

On the consultation carried out by the Ministry of Education, Pau expresses his concern. ‘I see a setback in language policy. The consultation is an attack disguised as freedom, “he says, emphasizing the importance of social mobilization in defending linguistic rights.

A future with hope

Despite the challenges, Paul maintains hope. ‘The fashions pass, and the music always finds a way to survive. The community must continue to organize and fight for what it considers fair, ” he concludes. Its message is clear: music is a means of resistance and hope in the face of difficult times.

A legacy that lasts

With his farewell, Smoking Souls leaves a legacy that transcends his music. They have been an example of self -management and struggle for the language, and their message endures in the voices that will continue to fight for a better future. “Life is a trench, and each of us can help to face the challenges,” concludes Pau, inspired by a new generation to follow his path.
