Salma

Málaga-born artist trained in flamenco guitar and singing who brings her EP Mal Corte to Málaga, six songs on passion, drama and heartbreak rooted in flamenco.

Salma is a Málaga-born artist who has trained in flamenco guitar and singing since the age of eight. She grew up in flamenco peñas, surrounded by strong-willed women from whom, she says, she learnt the value and sensitivity that now define her way of singing. As well as being a performer, she writes songs and, over the past year, has worked as a songwriter for other artists; those songs have not yet been released.

Her first album is Sangre de Cobarde. With the EP Mal Corte she returns with six tracks whose compositions revolve around lost love and emotional intensity. The pieces are very different from one another: they range from the jota to corridos tumbaos, passing through alegrías, pop cuts, urban productions and flamenco, and it is that flamenco foundation that gives the whole its coherence. The project features Lola Indigo, Lia Kali and Queralt Lahoz.

The EP comes to Málaga in concert format, at La Trinchera, a venue that hosts concerts and shows in the city. Salma performs this repertoire live, with which she closes the chapter of her first record and showcases her side as a songwriter.
