Refugios a cielo abierto’ is nourished by the sensations and emotions that are produced by returning to the territory of origin, and by rethinking the modern rhythm of life, which tends to lead us to surpass all our limits of self-demand. The message that breathes through these ten new refuges invites us to let go of our burdens and get active in the search for another way of living.
The album was produced by Diego Galaz (Fetén Fetén Fetén, Fito y Fitipaldis, Jorge Drexler) and features collaborations with David Ruiz (La M.O.D.A.), Ari Rubio (TéCanela) and Orégano (a symbol of the Castilian musical tradition).
