Los Lorcas blur boundaries between spoken word and so ng\, weaving poetry with Andalusian ballads\, blues\, rock\, folk\, reggae \, hip hop\, Americana and jazz in pursuit of the cante jondo (deep song ) Lorca ardently championed.House band for the iconic Grolier Poetry Book Shop\, Los Lorcas explore common roots and synergies of poetry and music\, celebrating the poetry of song lyrics and music of lyrical poetry. Inspir ed by artists diverse as Lorca\, Yeats\, Marley\, Dylan\, Dickinson\, Keen an\, Springsteen\, Kavanagh\, Matisyahu\, Morrison\, Petty\, Brooks\, Cohe n\, Bowie\, U2\, Lumineers\, Heaney\, REM\, Merwin\, Millay and others\, t he group’s timely and soulful compositions weave themes of love\, loss\, homelessness\, empathy\, activism and gratitude—all through a filter of the American dream. Veteran Vermont musician and producer Kristina Styko s has taken a shine to the new trio: “A lot of great musicians have come around here\, but not with the poetry chops that this group has—in spad es. A project sprouted from the literary side\, their cross pollination blending poetry\, personality\, musicality\, vitality of many colors and c reative intensity is so satisfying!” After years of honing their distin ctive genre-bending blend of music and poetry on stages across the state\, country and internationally\, Los Lorcas released their debut album LAST NIGHT IN AMERICA (2020) on Vermont’s Thunder Ridge Records label. Single s from their newest album on Thunder Ridge—WILD ISLAND—are being relea sed this summer\, in anticipation of the full album’s launch in Fall 202 5.“… and then listened to Los Lorcas...WOW!!! the second time through I had tears on EVERY SINGLE Song...wow and double wow...and the third time through....Innisfree became cherished for its sweetness—a whole sound.. ..The rest is SO powerful and Quirky and intensely wonderful...”—Chuck Cole\, Cape Cod Community RadioTroubadouring widely in the US and abroad (Ireland\, Canada and Slovenia)\, Los Lorcas have performed everywhere fro m farmhouse kitchens to pubs\, coffeehouses\, schools\, theaters and 1\,0 00+ book and music festival crowds [e.g. Boston Book Festival\, Poetry Cen ter San Jose\, San Francisco State University\, Massachusetts Poetry Festi val\, New Orleans Poetry Festival (w/ Cornelius Eady)\, Harvard Square Oct oberfest\, Burlington Book Festival\, Levis Corner House and Róisín Dub h (Ireland)\, Tucson Book Festival\, Bookstock Literary Festival (w/ Robe rt Pinsky’s PoemJazz)\, Chandler Music Hall\, Strokestown and Cork Poet ry Festivals (Ireland)\, Vermont College of Fine Arts\, Salt Hill Pub\, KG B Reading Series\, Cantab Lounge\, Bowery Poetry Club\, Nuyorican Poetry C afé and Caffe Lena]—attesting to the broad appeal of their liberating v ision of how poetry and music are two sides of the same spinning coin whic h together render a mesmerizing symbiosis. “Los Lorcas in unity is a ma rvel that would silence any creative individual to awe\, inspiring the qui etest observer to reach for each word as if they were Federico Lorca himse lf\, meditating on song and poetry mid-stage\, arms outstretched.”—Bia nca Viñas“Thank you and Los Lorcas for a wonderful gig - it was enjoyed  immensely and talked about the following day.
