Very Santana recreate the guitar master and his band's live experience, with all the authenticity and uniqueness that made Carlos Santana a living legend musician and composer.
The band are all big Santana Fans but Rolly (guitarist) in particular has always had an ambition to perform a complete Santana show. His immense knowledge of Santana, coupled with the passion of a genuine fan meant this new band has a solid foundation from which they could develop.
The band recreate the Santana style with proper live latin-rock, creating a very improvisational music experience by making shows as authentic as possible. The band perform live concert versions of the songs with a lot of extra improvisation, so the songs stay fresh and deliver surprises – giving a fantastic music experience to our listeners at every gig!
She might not be there but you certainly can be!
Once Upon A Tomorrow…/Un Tro Yfory… Surrealism in Wales
At the thirteenth stroke of midnight the Celtic Eye surveys the land of the insurgent Rebecca….
Creating new myths and memories, we surrealists in Wales are ‘specialists in revolt’ (André Breton, 1924) who seek merely to re-enchant the world and make it anew. We proclaim our rejection of the stultifying dead hand of the reality principle and hurl our barbs at the Society of the Spectacle, at a life not lived and one categorised by Miserabilism, alienation and the suppression of the human spirit. It will, therefore, be no surprise that we embroider our banner with André Breton’s favourite dictum, ‘ni dieu ni maître’ (No God No Master) (Arcane 17). Echoing Rimbaud’s call to ‘Change Life’ and Marx’s to ‘Change the World’, for us the emancipation of the imagination and humanity’s social emancipation are one and the same!
Interested, or simply nothing better to do? Then why not throw caution to the wind, remove the tiles from your head and join us for a surreal day on 9th April including:
An exhibition of Surrealist paintings, collages and photographs by members of the Welsh Tribe of Surrealists
A discussion of the origins of Surrealism, its key tenets and contemporary relevance - Surrealism is Dead, Long Live Surrealism!
For those who thought Surrealism was only to do with melted clocks, why not try a bit of Dragon in your surrealist soup and hear about the incredible story of Surrealism in Wales.
Surrealism and Cinema – In this session, we will talk about how Surrealists have made use of film, what is meant by ‘convulsive cinema’ and then turn the lights down and show some recent
works
To round off events, in our evening session, Beyond the Limits of Reason: Surrealist Poetry, we will be sharing recent and historic poetic texts with an opportunity for Q&A.
