2017 was a wonderful year for those listeners who like to hear traditional music being transported to the 21st century in an original and respectful way.

One of the most precious examples for this much-desired abundance is the unbelievable self-titled album of this collective of artists from Galicia, led by Xosé Lois Romero.

Hearty voices united in one powerful chant are accompanied by mesmerizing (and forward-looking) percussion, offering one-of-a-kind experience that’s as much musical as spiritual.

Past, present and future as one – at least for these 40 minutes.
