Links

The legendary band DOA, the forerunner of progressive folk and early music revival, gave us a new work devoted entirely to medieval Galician poetry after more than thirty years after the release of their first album O Escura are da Estrela.

The members of the band are three of the group's founders, Xoan Piñon, Xaquín Blanco and Bernardo Martinez; versatile artists with ample experience also in the fields of photography, painting, theater, poetry and experimental music. This time they added the zanfoñeiro Oscar Fernandez, one of the most important figures in the picture of new folk, founder of the groups Os Cempés and Bonovo. And the impressive voice of the renowned soprano Susana de Lorenzo, holder of a great technique, emotion and nuance.

With this new work, the group explores the symbolism of ancient forest, demonstrating, once again, its expertise and originality.
