Carrera Blanca + Menta Poleo

Carrera Blanca and Menta Poleo share the bill at Heliogàbal in Barcelona: a quartet from Madrid with ironic songs about everyday life and a six-piece powerpop band from Barcelona.

Carrera Blanca is a quartet from Madrid that has been releasing songs with an ironic, carefree tone for three years. Their lyrics criticise, complain about and poke fun at everyday situations, from filing the income tax return to days spent in the office, and address themes that affect a large part of the young audience.

Menta Poleo is an emerging powerpop band from Barcelona made up of six members. After almost two years of work, it presents its second album, titled « paloma y tórtola », with 13 tracks that combine different styles and sounds. Its lyrics deal with freedom and personal identity, and tell stories and emotional situations.

The night brings both acts together at Heliogàbal, a Barcelona venue that hosts concerts and shows. The genre of the evening is pop, rock and indie, with two projects that take lyrics and everyday humour as their starting point.
