Friday Events:

Masterclass by Xesc Reina - 20:00

Specialist in converting our raw material into delicacies

The incorporation of Xesc Reina, prestigious charcutero teacher who has published several books and a professor at the Charcuterie school in Barcelona is part of the avant-garde character of the company.

His passion for sausages and charcuterie and his desire for innovation are two of the reasons that make us improve every day.

Pedro Guerra (acoustic concert) - 21:00

Pedro Guerra was born in Güimar, a small town on the island of Tenerife, in 1966. At age 14 he composed his first song "Cathaysa", on a text by his father. At 16, he began to sing at parties and venues throughout the Canary Islands. At 18, he moved to the university city of La Laguna, also in Tenerife, where he quickly integrated into the musical activity of the city. After the Government of the Canary Islands edited a collective album of Islander artists in which he collaborated with four themes, Pedro joined other singer-songwriters to form the Taller Canario group, with which he published four albums: "Trapera, Identidad", " A por todos ", and" Rap (barely) ". Through Taller he was able to collaborate with Joaquín Sabina , Silvio Rodríguez , Luis Eduardo Aute or Víctor Manuel .

In 1993 Pedro Guerra settled in the Peninsula to bring us his music and lyrics to become one of the most prestigious composers in our country. He was one of the usual musicians of small rooms (Libertad 8, Bishop, Café del Foro). With these performances he managed to win a loyal audience in which were already established artists who wanted to sing their songs. Víctor Manuel and Ana Belén interpreted "Contamíname", Joaquín Sabina "Ruido", Cómplices "The husband of the hairdresser" or Paloma San Basilio "Lennon's glasses".

Pedro Guerra's first album , " Golosinas ", was recorded live and was composed of 17 songs ("Rap a duro penas", "Contamíname", "Deseo", "El habado de la hairdresser", etc.). "Golosinas" became a gold record, and platinum his second work, " Tan Cerca de Mi ", published in 1997. In it, he showed us a Pedro Guerra intellectual, chronicler of his time and committed to reality. From there arose among others, songs like "Neither the opposite", "Under the Bridge", "Moreno". The album was recorded between Madrid and Paris without losing its essence or its roots. On this occasion, he incorporated African sounds, and tribal voices backed by his producer, Lokua Kanza, a native of Zaire, who worked with Peter Gabriel or Papa Wemba. "Tan Cerca de Mí" was also published in Argentina, Colombia, Paraguay, the US, Uruguay and Venezuela.

In 1999 came " Root ", an album with 14 new stories signed by Pedro Guerra. Once again he continued playing with his lyrics to show the tug-of-war between the sexes, showing new compositions and the rhythms that other languages offered. For the first time, he dared to produce (along with Juan Ignacio Cuadrado) all the songs on the album.

In the year 2001 Pedro Guerra published the album " Ofrenda " and in 2004 he appeared " Pockets ", 14 songs composed, sung, arranged, programmed and produced by Pedro Guerra in his Madrid studio Piso de Abajo. "Pockets" is a varied album that covers styles. Some songs have that quiet intimacy of their early days (like Menguante, the first single of the album) while others look for more lively rhythms. There are also multiple sources of inspiration that have built the songs. Ray Loriga, Canarian folklore, verses by different artists (Llach, Bob Dylan , Caetano Veloso , Fito Páez , Bob Marley , Brel, Falú, Silvio Rodríguez ), television-hogwash, trends, the miseries of Western culture, Francoist repression, unsupportive consumerism, comfortable generation.

In 2008 " Vidas " was published, 14 new songs that represent the return of Pedro Guerra after a break in the recordings, and in which the author shows us the inspiration, the depth, the poetic height of the texts and the musical richness of their songs.
