Manu Chao is the obvious

but it is pure pop. Ibrahim Ferrer does some good cuban stuff.


*did

cos e died.


Devendra Banhart

sings some of his songs in spanish.
good ones i have:

Santa Maria Da Feira
Quedate Luna
Inaniel

all from 'Cripple Crow'.


I like Nosoträsh

they're kind of twee, girly indie-pop. Mi Vida en un Fin de Semana is good, as is Popemas.


yeah...

..watch the La Casa Azul videos, to see how much you throw up on your monitor.


...

Los Saicos! Peru's number 1 garage punk band.


here are a few bits and pieces

Antonia Font:
From Mallorca, and they sing in mallorcan. A friend described them like this, for any Spanish speakers: Representa la banda sonora de la grandeza de las pequeñas cosas. Escucharles es reconcialiarte con la
vida. Hacen canciones dulces, tiernas muy cálidas y amables. Son
canciones que despiertan tus sentidos y que demuestran que con muy poco
se puede uno sentir feliz.

Grupo Salvaje: Like elvis, johnny cash and L.Cohen.

Skimo: Indietronica from the generation that has grown up with the postal service. Debut called "un ano de libros viejos y los restos de un incendio" They're on Rhondarecords.com who have some good stuff.

Dolorean: Basque rock! yeah.

Os Mutantes?

or is that Portugese?


this webpage is pretty good

www.popmadrid.com. Has links to blogs and stuff, if you speak Spanish the reviews are decent.

Did anyone go and see Ojos de Brujo at the roundhouse? Sposed to be a decent blend of hip hop/flamenco and much more...
