Natxo de Felipe takes the stage again to retrieve unpublished songs with Oskorri

Veteran musician Natxo de Felipe has dusted these songs and given them a new life in the show "Abandonados", in the Sanctuary of Arantzazu. The quote has been included in the programming of the Musical Fortnight of San Sebastián and has been carried out with the participation and support of EITB. In the performance, these songs that never found a place in the band's records have been heard again in a renewed and electric format.
