The band led by Jeff Tweddy will perform on June 29th in Valencia as part of the NITS VORAMAR Concert Series at the Marina Norte Auditorium to present live tracks from their latest studio album, released in the fall of 2023 under the title “Cousin.”
The album is produced by Welsh artist Cate Le Bon and features experiments with saxophones and Japanese guitars. Wilco is one of the most representative American rock bands of the last three decades thanks to their ability to combine tradition and avant-garde, the acoustic with the electric, the recognizable with the unexplored.
Luis Prado (Alicante, July 27, 1972) is a pianist, singer, and composer. He has lived in Valencia since the age of 11 and began teaching himself to play the piano at 5. In 1990, he formed his first band, The Flauters, and later, Señor Mostaza, a group with which he released four albums between 2003 and 2015, earning unanimous critical acclaim and being considered “the best-kept secret in Spanish pop.”
Throughout his career, he has combined teaching at conservatories with touring and recording with artists such as Ariel Rot, M Clan (participating in their iconic live albums Sin Enchufe and Dos noches en el Price), Miguel Ríos, and Fito y los Fitipaldis, among many others. In 2016, he began his solo career with Mis Terrores Favoritos, an album in which he played all the instruments and included collaborations with Coque Malla, Miguel Ríos, and Guille Milkyway (La Casa Azul). His song Estoy Gordo went viral, landing him on programs like Un país para escucharlo on Spanish National Television (TVE).
In 2021, he released El Tsunami Emocional, which won Best Pop Album at the Carles Santos Awards of the Generalitat Valenciana (Valencian Government). He is currently promoting his third album, La estafa de la vida adulta (The Scam of Adult Life).
