The records of my life by the nest

We took the opportunity to ask them to reveal their six reference albums and here is the result.

(You can check their tour dates at the end of this article).

Eliseo Parra- “Hispanic Tribes” (1998)
For us, the reference album for anyone who makes music from folklore. Eliseo is our idol and with this album he marked a path that no one had imagined before and that gave wings to so many groups that came after us.

Rodrigo Cuevas – “Courtship Manual” (2019)
We were shocked when we heard that, with a traditional song, something so groundbreaking could be done. One of those albums that, when you think everything is done, arrives and blows your mind.

Punch Brothers – “The Phosphorescent Blues” (2015)
If we used folders, we would have their faces stuck in them. We don’t have the official data, but we are practically three hundred percent sure that three quarters of the plays this album has are our fault. It’s been two years since we went on a group excursion to go see them live in Europe.

Radiohead – “Amnesiac” (2001)
For none of us it makes sense to think about adolescence, above all, but also about our lives until today without thinking about guitars with distortion. A good part of the blame still lies with these idols. We like to think that in our jotas and charros they are also heard.

Kepa Junkera – “Maren” (2001)
Our Navarrese sector of the band says that they cannot remain calm without us mentioning this album, which their father always played on car trips. Their melodies and the power of Kepa’s triki are always in our hearts.

Grupo Orégano – “Traditional Castilian Music: El Cancionero Burgalés” (1981)
Our most direct references. This album played in our cars every time we returned to Burgos every weekend, and it was thanks to them that many of us regained the goosebumps when a dulzaina or a jota was played.
