RIU
folk i músiques del món //
RIU is a band formed in 2011 by six young musicians keen to revive and perform popular music from the Catalan-speaking countries. Their repertoire combines popular melodies and their own compositions, and they perform both instrumental pieces made from sets of melodies and songs. Theirs is a powerful acoustic sound and, on their second album, Amb Canya!, they continue to plough the furrow marked out on their debut release, revisiting such songs as Cigalons de Canalda and Cançó de les Balances, as well as classical melodies like Joan del Riu, La bolangera and El ball de noces d’Arenys. After more than one hundred live performances in the Catalan-speaking countries, Spain, the Basque Country, Occitania, France, Andorra and Italy, showcasing that first disc, they now are now touring the album Amb Canya!.
