Radio Zapa!

Radio Zapa! is a psychedelic rock power trio from Compostela. A burst of incisive lyrics, fuzz and intense instrumental atmospheres consisting of Martín Zapata (guitar, vocals), Suso Pereiro (bass, backing vocals) and Fran Facal (drums, backing vocals); created to look for dense sounds, from 70s rock to current stoner, at the end of 2015.

In their first work, "Igual es diferente" (2017), they expose the contamination of everyday commercialism, love and art, showing a reaction against the crushing power of the false and the apparent, in five furious tracks. During 2017, they perform in concerts full of energy and density, a significant sign of their staging. That same summer they won Revenidas’ #SonidosMans, which was a small boost for the project that was already beginning to increase dates around concert venues in Galicia.

In 2018, they launch the maxisingle "El hit-La cantinela", where they broaden their sound horizon combining heavy and forceful stoner riffs, a style in which they delve deeper and deeper; and they string together a summer of festivals and musical cycles.

A year later, just before the pandemic break, Suso Pereiro joins the band and they begin to compose and record what would be their new album, "Demasiado..." (2022). (2022). Recorded at Pouland Studios by Iago Pico and released only on vinyl by the label RequeSound Records, the LP represents a consolidation of what until now had only been flirtations with psychedelia, and an important step forward for the band.
