Paco Pecado

Paco Pecado presents his album Palantino in Granada, a concept album that brings the figure of the minstrel, the singer-songwriter and the Spanish picaro to an era shaped by screens and algorithms. The concert takes place at the Planta Baja venue.

Paco Pecado is the project through which his new album, Palantino, arrives in Granada. It is a concept album that revives the tradition of the minstrel, the singer-songwriter, the Spanish picaro and the knight-errant, and transposes it to an era in which screens, algorithms and influencers shape much of our collective stories. From there, the album asks what it means to be a troubadour today.

The title works as a poetic demonym rather than as a place: it names a way of facing life, even amid precariousness and uncertainty, moving forward without a fixed course but with some sense of direction. Its songs address the itinerant and contradiction-filled existence of the one who sings, and champion enjoying everyday life in the face of the haste of a world obsessed with speed.

On stage, the proposal features a special band created for this occasion, and the show is presented as a world premiere. Its universe is that of a rogue with a carefree spirit, with an energy that seeks to turn each gig into a shared celebration. The Planta Baja venue mainly hosts live music concerts.
