Els Amics de les Arts

Els Amics de les Arts is one fine example of what some have called the 'new wave of Catalan folk-pop'. Their songs are short stories made with simple melodies, touches of electronic music, wordplay and lots of irony. After several demos and a disc, the album 'Bed & Breakfast' (Discmedi, 2009) was a decisive step forward: they went from being just a group of friends sharing a flat in Barcelona, to sell over 45,000 copies of their LP.

Their following album 'Espècies per catalogar' (Discmedi, 2012), placed them at number 1 in iTunes Spain and took them on a tour which was immortalized in the CD-DVD 'Tenim dret fer l'animal' (Discmedi, 2012).

Last 2014, the band presented their latest album 'Només d’entrar hi ha sempre el dinosaure' (Discmedi, 2014) which in its first week out, got to number 1 in itunes and Amazon Spain.

'Només d’entrar sempre hi ha sempre el dinosaure' is simply a further step of this established band in constant evolution.
