Cloe Riembau & MALVA

Double bill at La Cinc as part of the Afers cycle, featuring songwriter Cloe Riembau, from La Bisbal d'Empordà, and MALVA, the solo project of Carolina Viana from Portugal.

La Cinc hosts concerts and shows in Barcelona, and this gig is part of the Afers cycle, which brings together a local act and a European one who share a genre in an intimate format. The concert also forms part of the programme for Dia de la Música ACCES, an initiative funded by the Ministry of Culture.

Cloe Riembau, from La Bisbal d'Empordà, presents her first album, Equilibris sense xarxa, produced by Aleix Bou with the support of Jaume Pla (Mazoni). The record comes after winning the Sona 9 contest and marks the culmination of a three-year journey in which she moved from performing covers to focusing on her own songwriting, with a style that brings her close to international reference points in indie-pop.

MALVA is the solo project of Carolina Viana, from Viana do Castelo and based in Porto, which began alongside producer Joana Rodrigues in the duo redoma. Her debut album, vens ou ficas (2023), was widely acclaimed by critics and featured in several lists of the best Portuguese albums of the year. The concert is backed by Liveurope, the first pan-European initiative supporting music venues to promote emerging artists, co-founded by the European Union's Creative Europe programme.
