LOS SALTAMONTES - I WANT TO HOLD YOUR HAND

Chema, Javi, Jaime, and Fran

At late 1993, Chema and goods friends (Javi, Jaime and Fran) made a minibeat group with "beatle look" in A Coruña: Los Saltamontes (The  Grasshopper). In these year, Chema was 7, Javi 8, Jaime 6, and Fran 8 years old. The most important, as Chema's dad say, was his fun.

and his Rickenbacker 325 in TV.

They recorded 3 LPs, being the most renowned "Singing The Beatles -Children'S Tribute". They reached such a success that Paul McCartney, and Yoko Ono, both congratulated them for their well-done work, by handwritten letters, and few presents (read in ABC newspaper). Even they played in Liverpool,at the legendary Matthew St. (April 1997). See videos below, and enjoy the song!

VACACIONES - POPPY GIRL

Vacaciones was formed in April 1998, when Ruth, Angel Pop, Rafa and Jose Alberto decided to start writing happy, dreamy pop songs, inspired by some of their faves: HEAVENLY, LOS FRESONES REBELDES, pop based on crystal-like guitars and naive female vocals. After composing a song called "Vacaciones En El Mar", they got the name for the band: VACACIONES - the Spanish word for "holidays". For them, holidays mean the best moments of the year, when we can escape from the daily grind. And because playing in a band is the funniest thing in the world.

MARTIN MAX - EL MUNDO A NUESTROS PIES

Since this afternoon seems to be devoted to the Spanish recent pop, I would like to introduce you to "Martin Max", a band created by Javi, the singer of another band, Fast Food. With just one Lp, the socalled "Nicotina" (1999), Javi did not join the members of the band never again, following with the pop-punk band Fast Food. Nevertheless, "Nicotina" has the air of the sixties, reason to be uploaded here.
Enjoy!
