Lígula: emerging music


 Would you like to know something about Lígula?
Lígula is a band that can be counted among the new generation of independent bands, with hardly one year on the road. Six madrileños plus one from Ponferrada (León), all around 22 years old, make up the group. Three guitars, bass, drums, sometimes a harmonica, and a singer (whose peculiar, low voice resembles that of the singer in Munford & Sons) determine the sound of the group. The style of their first EP has been defined between folk and indie.
Lígula’s live performances are extraordinary and powerful. Missing Bird(one of the most applauded songs in concerts), "Chanted Monologue"  and Filterare the highlights of the disc, with a rhythmic, enveloping atmosphere. Those who have decided to be part of this great family will enjoy with their experimental, fun and different sound.

They made it to the final round in the Suberock Festival contest in Extremadura (the first competition in which they have taken part) and reach Emergenza's semifinal. Some of their songs have been broadcast on Capitán Demo Radio 3 and they have played in many concert venues. They have also applied for the SOS 4.8 TalentoSOS competition.
But the most interesting thing about Lígula is that there’s no main leader. Each member has a specific, definite and essential role.
 As they say themselves: “Ligula is a story in permanent movement with no particular destination in mind”. Would you like to hear them?
