Tell us about yourself
My name is Arnau, I’m 20 years old, from Santa Pau in La Garrotxa, and I’m currently studying at EUMES.
What musical projects are you working on?
I’m involved in several projects as a musician. I’m part of a couple of bands right now with Júlia Blum and Agnès Algueró, both signed with record labels Picap and U98 Music.
I’m also managing the Festival Mussol, which raises funds for childhood cancer. This festival has featured many artists like Amaia, Núria Graham, Sr. Chen, and many more. Additionally, I’m the manager of Sabana, a music group from Granollers.
Currently, I’m launching my own artistic project, which really took off in late 2021 and into 2022. It combines jazz with electronic music and is different from anything I’ve done before because it’s my own project, where I want to express myself as a musician.
