Paco Pecado

Paco Pecado comes to Málaga to present Palantino, his new album, with a band assembled for this date. It is a conceptual album about the figure of the troubadour in an era dominated by screens, algorithms and influencers.

Paco Pecado is a project in the troubadour tradition, presenting its new album, Palantino, in Málaga. The album is conceptual and starts from a question: what does it mean to be a contemporary troubadour when screens, algorithms and influencers shape the collective stories? To answer it, the project draws on the tradition of the medieval minstrel, the singer-songwriter, the Spanish picaro and the wandering knight, and transposes them to the digital world.

Palantino does not denote a place but a poetic demonym: a way of facing life between precariousness and uncertainty, always moving forward, wandering and vulnerable, yet with some sense of direction. The proposal blends references to the village fair, to wine taverns and to the digital universe, and champions a nomadic, contradictory life in contrast to haste, with the pleasure of enjoying everyday life and one's own path.

On this occasion, the project is presented with a band assembled especially for the concert. Sala Marte is a venue in Málaga that hosts mainly rock and indie concerts.
