Puerto Lumbreras will host the first edition of the 'Góñar Rock' Festival on Saturday, June 15, in the Lumbrerense hamlet of Góñar with free admission.
From 9.00 pm, the festival will offer rock music with the participation of six leading groups in the region.
The musical appointment will feature the presence on stage of The Caps Rock Band, Debaho Band, Mother Rock, Ratas Muertas, Contagious and Alambrada.
The Festival Commission of Góñar, in collaboration with the City Councils of Puerto Lumbreras and Huércal-Overa, has been in charge of promoting this new initiative.
The councilman of Celebrations, Juan Rubén Burrueco, has encouraged the citizens of the municipality and nearby towns to attend this event "that will bring together the best rock bands in the area for the audience to enjoy great live themes loaded with energy "
Alambrada is an urban rock band from the 90s, based in Puerto Lumbreras, with members that have rotated throughout its history due to its long history.
After the death of his soul and leader, Angel Rosique, and without even taking the decision of whether the band will continue on stage or not, they will be present at this festival to collaborate with the Góñar Festivities Commission and make a new recognition to the figure of Rosique.
It will be the first concert of the group without Angel after the tribute that was made in the Festival 'Attitude Rock' a year after his death.
Throughout his career, Alambrada only recorded an album because the most important thing for them has always been to play live, have fun on stage and give the best of them to their audience.
The history of Debaho Band began in a well-known bar in Lorca, Mama Luna, which welcomed a large number of waiters, most of whom love rock and roll, behind its bar.
Five of them thought it would be fun to meet to play and sing those songs they liked so much.
Thus, they began to learn and rehearse versions of their favorite groups.
After a while, and with a good list of versions behind them, in 2006 they decided to do a concert to show what they had worked so hard for;
What they did not know is that they were starting a project that is still valid today.
The stage of "Based on real events" has lasted four long years, in which the band has acquired a lot of experience, complicity and presence in the stages.
He has also matured his sound and his concept of rock & roll, and proof of this is his latest album "Hijos del rock & rol".
Roca Madre was born in 2018 after joining Rafael and Ignacio de LaBouns with Paco and Luis, who already played rock versions together.
The four of them came together with the idea of ​​having a good time playing versions of classic British and American rock songs that they love so much;
songs by artists like Eric Clapton, Jimmy Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, David Bowie or The Police.
They also incorporate classic themes from recent bands like Muse, Oasis or Red Hot Chili Peppers.
In just one year they put together a repertoire of classic songs to start playing live in the summer of 2019.
They take good care of their sound, alternate the vocal work between the two guitarists and the bassist and, above all, propose a forceful and electric direct: an updated tribute to the great names in the history of rock and roll.
Dead Rats are a group of friends who met sporadically to play rock versions as a hobby.
After taking a short break, they have returned to the stage and will be present at this event.
In recent months they have performed several times to enjoy and celebrate what unites them: friendship and rock and roll.
The Caps Rock Band is a recently created group from Murcia that produces fresh rock and cañeras versions.
Emilio Cayuela (guitar), Miguel Cárceles (guitar), Pepe Muñoz (bass), Antonio Sánchez (drums) and Óscar Fernández (singer) perform songs and great hits from artists and international groups such as Bon Jovi, Mick Jagger, The Offspring, Muse , Foo Fighters or AC / DC.
The Caps maintains the essence of classic rock and at the same time seeks something more transgressive, introducing songs of its derivatives that attract more.
Lastly, the current Contagious line-up originated in 2017, although three of the current members had already been acting together with other previous members of the band.
His style is a melodic metal with a female voice.
The compositions usually seek to make catchy melodies with powerful rhythmic bases.
To this day, the members of the group are: Tania (singer), Ginés Ruiz (guitar and choirs) Miguel Torres (guitar), Loren (bass) and Luis (drums).
