10 indispensable names of Crüilla 2025 (Part 2)

There are only three days left for the Cruïlla to celebrate its 15th edition in the Parc of the Fòrum of Barcelona from July 9 to 12. The last price change in tickets will take place on Monday, July 7 at 11:59 p.m.

The 15th anniversary of Cruïlla will feature poster heads such as Alanis Morissette, Sex Pistols and Gracie Abrams, and also with others that we commented in this second special dedicated to the festival. Among them are St. Vincent’s international claim and the double participation of Love of Lesbian, who will play alone on Friday and Saturday will offer a concert full of guest stars.

Love of Lesbian + Amics

Love of Lesbian is a group historically linked to Cruïlla, as he acted in the first edition of the festival and has participated in him on other occasions throughout his history. Therefore, the Santi Balmes band will celebrate the 15 years of Cruïlla acting in the event twice, on Friday and Saturday. The second day will accompany their “friends” of music.

St. Vincent

‘All Born Screaming’ is the dark album that St. Vincent continues to present around the world and that has asserted great criticisms, in addition to some other Grammy. It is not a secret that the directs of Annie Clark are usually spectacular, but for their care, for the excellent sound and the scenic presence of the artist.

Kaiser Chiefs

Kaiser Chiefs have had the good mood to call their latest album ‘The Kaiser Chiefs’ Easy Eighth Album’. It is not ironic: the album is especially accessible thanks to such pintones as ‘Feeling Alright’ or the colorful ‘How 2 dance’. Kaiser Chiefs will present this new album in Cruïlla with the rest of their successes: ‘Ruby’, ‘I predict a riot’, ‘Never Miss A Beat’ … A reunion with the best indie of the 2000 that remains active and good form.

Lia Kali

One of the safe and confident voices of current pop, Lia Kali presents her recommended album ‘Kaelis’ in Cruïlla, which makes her look like a thirsty winehouse of new musical styles. After becoming known with collaborations with Dellafuente (‘Phosphorite’), Eladio Carrión (‘I die’) or, above all, relas B (‘Life without you’), is the time of Lia Kali.

Live the fête

The Belgian group lives the Fête, composed of Danny Mommens (guitar and voice) and Els Pynoo (voice), lit the scenarios of Europe with its hilarious fusion of Synth-Pop, Electroclash and Dance-Punk with chanson touches and a lot of glamor. Successes like ‘Nuit Blanche’, ‘Maketail’ or ‘Noir Désir’ catapulted a race that continues to this day: the EP ‘Les Sauvages’ is this year.

Alcalá Norte

The Trajectory of Alcalá Norte remains unstoppable, and the Madrid group has just announced a second date at the Riviera in Madrid on December 21, after entering the tickets for the first date of December 30. Long before the Alcalá Norte tour, the band led by Álvaro Rivas will demonstrate in Cruïlla why his homonymous debut is considered the best national album of 2024.

L’Maratrice

The summer guateque of L’Pleratrice is another of the outstanding proposals in the next edition of Cruïlla. His vision of disc music, sifted by French Touch, Funky and Deep House, has connected with a millionaire audience, and the Parisian group led by Charles de Boisseguin brings with it a hits portfolio led by ‘Tropical Agitations’ and ‘Vanille Fraise’ that, in Barcelona, ​​will waste color, elegance and good vibes.
