Kobetamendi will dance
The amplifiers, the DJs' plates and the speakers must be on in Kobetamendi already, warming up to spread the tones that will resonate in the audience's ears from today until Sunday morning.
On the first of the three evenings, this July 10, everything will be heard at the top of Bilbao: britpop, funk, soul, rock, indie, pop... But most — most of those who notice the music — will go up to the mountain in response to a call from Pulp, the group led by Jarvis Cocker (Sheffield, 1963).
Of the Great Four of the Britpop movement, Pulp was missing to represent in Kobetamendi: Suede was in 2011 and 2019 at Bilbao BB in Live, the Gallagher brothers of Oasis have also been separately, and Damon Albarn of Blur has performed at the festival with The Good, The Bad and The Queens and Gorillaz.
Well, today, Jarvis Cocker's fans will be wiping out the thorn. Pulp will bring to Bilbao, delights of elegant pop rock fans, hymns from the album "Disco 2000" and "Common People" Different class and probably more copies fromthealbum released a month ago.
On the little trail of Pulp, which is closer and farther away, half a dozen other artists will spread guitar melodies in the early evenings of the festival, such as Hinds, Wunderhors, Japanese Breakfast, English Teacher and the Catalans Cala Vento, as well as Michael Kiwanuka's exquisite and warm soul proposal.
Following the path of electronics, the Bicep Belfast Twins (who will stage theshow Chroma in the Basque Country), Kaytranada and Judelin, for example, and halfway between electronics and funk, is the group that must enter the journey of the day between the stage: the Argentinian Ca7riel and Paco Amoroso and their skilled band.
Unfortunately, those who enjoy the Argentines, who see the full performance, will not be able to see Hofe, who has had the same schedule, on different stages. In addition to Hof (00:45, stage Johnnie Walker), Eider (17:30, stage Johnnie Walker), Mirua (17:45, stage San Miguel) and Tatta & Denso (19:20, stage Johnnie Walker), there are Basque representatives on the opening day.
