Biflats
Biflatsproposejarana and fanfàrria and assure you lots of fun. Bb’s is the shuddering conjecture of rhythms and the potential of ‘cobla’, and it sounds genuine and new. Bb’s is a ‘cobla’ that breaks the mould: a hooligan ‘cobla’. Our songs describe an imaginary comical-rural Catalan society, but Bb’s also revisits classics of the popular Catalan culture. We turn them upside down and we fillthemupwithMediterraneanexoticismorBalkan sounds, always in a Catalan way, with the instruments of the ‘cobla’ displaying all their sonic potential.
