Dúa de Pel is a literary-musical duet that plunges into the roots of tradition to reinvent it. Reinventing it because it is a created-today folklore, with lyrics by playwright Eva Guillamón and music by composer Sonia Megías. They decided to get involved in this ambitious project moved by curiosity to go beyond, or behind, to recover a music that seems to come from the earth’s crust. Their works are a deep listening exercise that connects us with a continuous present from yesterday to tomorrow. They usually sing a cappella or with a soft instrumental accompaniment, which surrounds this very unusual group in an ancestral aura, almost magical, hard to define or classify. Their last tour took them to Central America, thanks to the Spanish International Cooperation Agency (AECID).
