TRAC

After two conceptual albums—“Man” and “El bosque sin árboles”—TRAC launches their new work, entitled 'Trac3' in 2022; more than an hour of music divided into eight pieces that once again navigate freely in the waters of progressive rock.

The main content of the album is delimited by the mini-suites 'El crepúsculo de la doble visión' and 'Contrastes' and, between them, there are four original pieces: 'Ingravidez', 'La hierba cortada', 'Liza' and 'Rock & Prog', together with the singular reinterpretation of Antón García Abril's "El hombre y la tierra".

Included as a "bonus trac" is the Charles Mingus classic 'Goodbye Pork Pie Hat' in a cover performed by Jeff Beck in his time, which TRAC now recovers in a tribute to both of them.

The album "Man" is a suite about the artist Manfred Gnädinger, the "German from Camelle", from his origins in Lake Constance, his arrival in Galicia, his work over 40 years in Camelle until his tragic death during the Prestige disaster. The album "El bosque sin árboles" includes diverse subjects and sonorities, from the instrumental chaining ('ECM') to pure introspection ('Luminarias') or the expression of rage ('Generación maldita'), without forgetting the protagonism of the ecological suite that gives the album its title.

TRAC are Moncho Pardo (electric guitar, effects, vocals), Luis Molina (electric bass, vocals), Berto Morán (drums, percussion, acoustic guitar, vocals) and Juan Cordonié (acoustic, electric and synthesised guitar, vocals).
