Pop Mutations & Freakender present: Carolina Durante + Special Guests Sunday 18th May Stereo 18+
*Hola gente, sintiéndolo mucho vamos a tener que posponer las fechas de nuestra gira europea de mayo porque finalmente coinciden con la operación de Diego. La gira de verano sigue en pie, como dijimos, al igual que el concierto de este jueves en Madrid y el viernes en el Warm Up. Las fechas nuevas de Europa las anunciaremos próximamente, nuestro equipo está trabajando en ello. Sabemos que hay mucha gente que ha comprado vuelos y tal y que esto es una putada para ellos. Lo sentimos… hemos hecho todo lo posible para intentar cuadrarlo, pero no ha habido manera porque además después de la operación Diego no podría volar en 2 semanas por lo menos… Iremos diciéndoos a medida que sepamos más.1 abrazo.
Hi everyone, we're very sorry but we're postponing the dates of our European tour in May because they are finally going to happen at the same time as Diego's surgery. The summer tour is still going on, as we said, as well as the concert this Thursday in Madrid and on Friday at Warm Up Festival. The new dates in Europe will be announced soon, our team is working on it. We know that there are a lot of people who have bought flights and so on and that this is a real pain for them. We are really sorry... we have done everything we could to try to fit it in, but we couldn't, because after Diego's surgery he couldn't fly for at least 2 weeks... We will let you know as soon as possible. Best. *
Pop Mutations & Freakender present:
Carolina Durante
There are intangibles that go beyond the number of headlining shows, the amount of albums sold, or the sum of followers on social media
— objective data that, by the way, confirm the relevance of Carolina Durante as the most important band of their generation.
But we were talking about intangibles — those things that, in times of data tyranny, turn an artist or a band into a phenomenon whose importance goes beyond the sum of their numbers. We were talking about Carolina Durante.
Carolina Durante has had to swim against the current since the day, after a Los Punsetes concert, they decided to form a band. And they did it: they divided the roles of the group, and the next day they went to buy instruments — guitar, bass, drums... All of this in a context where urban and Latin music were beginning to dominate the charts and becoming a global soundtrack that cannot be escaped the moment you step outside...
Perhaps that decision to face their own destiny as a band, combined with the group’s ability to maintain the excitement of their first day, are the differentiating factors that have made Carolina Durante the most important band of their generation. They are also largely responsible for the resurgence of rock and guitar- driven pop.
Carolina Durante is a supergroup — the only one in the world not formed by illustrious members of other significant bands. The band wouldn’t be the same without the charismatic voice of Diego, without his ability to strike a chord with lyrics that hover between existential unease and humor. But, of course, the band wouldn’t exist as it does without Mario’s punk-pop spirit on guitar, Martín’s solid sobriety on bass, or Juan’s talent and eccentricity behind the drums. Each and every one of the four members is essential to shaping the sound of Carolina Durante as well as their unique personality.
With these foundations and occasional external collaborations (with Amaia, Jota Planetas, Santiago Motorizado, or Rosalía), the band has developed a career that balances between massive success and the cult following of their passionate fanbase.
These are the intangibles we were talking about at the beginning of this text, as well as the idea that the best is yet to come...
