The renowned indie-rock group The Wedding Present is celebrating. It is the 30th anniversary of Bizarro, the second studio album of the band formed in 1985 in Leeds. In commemoration and to celebrate it, they will play tonight in Barcelona. The iconic record includes some of the most important songs of this British group, such as Keneddy and Brassneck, promising a memorable concert.
The London band Vanishing Twin, one of the latest projects of the singer and multi-instrumentalist Cathy Lucas, uses sounds from outside the usual pop vocabulary. Forgotten rhythm machines, handmade electronic devices, vibraphones, tablas and harps combine to offer melodies which evoke an esoteric journey. Considered one of the most stimulating present-day bands in the United Kingdom, they are on the same wave as other groups such as Stereolab or Broadcast. They will play today in Barcelona with The Age of Immunology under their arm, their latest work released last June.
The American singer Courtney Marie Andrews is currently one of the most recognized names in country-folk and country-gospel.

The smooth, hypnotic voice of the Syrian singer and composer Bedouine, whose real name is Azniv Korkejian, could be compared with that of Karen Dalton, Minnie Riperton or Laura Marling. The leisurely echoes of Bohemian folk from the 60s, served up as if they were infusions of bossa nova, are capable of fully attracting the listener. Her debut album, which bears her name, was produced by Gus Seyffert (Beck, Norah Jones, The Black Keys). In Barcelona she will present her second album, Bird Songs of a Killjoy on Saturday 21st of September at 9PM at Pça Joan Coromines.
