Trilitrate - Está de Grelo (2021)

Trilitraté was formed in Vigo,Spain in 2012 by violinist Elena Vázquez, accordionist Marcos Padrón and guitarist and vocalist Rubén Abad. After two published albums (praised by critics and the audience) and numerous concerts, Trilitrate is set to release their third album Está de Grelo!
The music does not stand alone; it includes the presence of the cartoonist, set designer and stop-motion animator Montse Piñeiro (María Casares Award 2018, for the best scenography). In this new work they visit distant musical geographies such as the African and the Ottoman, and overstep the baroque and impressionist experience of the 21st century in search of new sounds. This is the mark of this innovative band; to blur existing lines between the traditional, classical, ethnic, contemporary, jazz and hardcore music. Their own compositions house instrumental music and original songs created in Galician and combined with animations and video creations in real time. The sound and visual stimuli achieve a new sound universe, innovative and brimming with beauty.
‘They say the world is getting smaller, and yet here we find a group of classically trained musicians virtually unknown outside of Spain. Musicians who have watched the world and chose to assimilate their training with touches of Frank Zappa, R. Crumb, and Black Metal influences. Their music reminds me of Life itself, in all its agony and joy.’ (Louis Marks, Ropeadope)
