"Contrapunto" - Tanxugueiras

Tanxugueiras

Links

Life has two faces. It has opposite moments, which sometimes taste sweet and sometimes bitter. An inevitable duality that balances with sensitivity and delicacy, with strength and character, the Tanxugueiras. New blood to revitalize and update the country's oral music tradition, a formation that on its second album manages to give new life and a new meaning to the songs that have always been sung in Galicia. Contrapunto is an album of ten siamese songs, five faces and five crosses from different moments of life narrated through the lyrics that the pandereiteiras kept alive until today. Words with a past to describe the present through the voices of these three young women and sounds of different styles. A proposal that expands the possibilities of traditional music and places it based on strength and empowerment in the same settings as styles such as pop or indie.
