Lori Meyers' timeless songs light up the first night of PHE Festival

The Granada band offered a masterful concert on their first visit to Tenerife with a repertoire of greatest hits before a devoted audience

#Phe2024 || #UnicoInCanarias || #WeTalkMusic

The PHE Festival It is a musical and trend-setting event that accommodates all possible types of music. It is not a festival of indie groups, an outdated term that labels anything; nor is it a festival of electronics and dance; nor even of urban sounds, trap or any subgenre that entices the new generations. But in each new edition, and there are nine with the one in 2024, the PHE Festival It embraces all proposals and artists, from within and outside, who move within any of the aforementioned style coordinates.

The ninth edition, whose concert programme started this Friday, August 23, maintains this roadmap unchanged with artists such as the Granadans Lori Meyers, the Galician Sen Senra or the Barcelonan twilight joeFor the three of them, each in their own space and with their own audience, it was the first day of the festival in Puerto de la Cruz, with Lori Meyers getting a high mark. 

The band led by Antonio López Noni did not disappoint in their first concert in Tenerife, due to their staging, attitude and a repertoire full of everlasting songs, which remain in the collective imagination and no longer belong to the band, but to the public, in this case to the thousands of people who followed each of the lyrics out loud. A great party in which all the expected ones fell: Beings of light, Neon lights, Flatland, Springs, Punk, Fireflies, You don't say anything anymore, Time will pass, The sun always shines, Make you fly, the long-awaited and celebrated Getting drunk, Are they back?, My reality and High fidelity

The first day of PHE Festival It had much more than the long-awaited meeting with Lori Meyers, as it was the first concert of the Galician Sen SenraThere was expectation to see the evolution of this rising figure of urban pop, who came to PHE Festival with his latest album PO2054AZ, the sound alibi to trace an emotional journey with his most eclectic creations. And since Sen Senra enchants, a couple got engaged while the song was playing Scent.

With two artists called to play in the major leagues in the opening, the British Canary Islander Enrique Ive and its newly released EP Pileus, produced by Pablo Queu; and the singer from Tenerife Jela, who played songs from his recent album with ease and good flow Temple, accompanied by her band Los Maledukaos and the collaborations of Cristina Mahelo and Fernikhan, the first day of PHE Festival left good feelings among the public with the concerts of Repion, Pipiolas, Soleá Morente, Dove, and the final flourish that he put twilight joe, who made good on his role as a techno troubadour, an album released in 2022, with pieces like The song of your life, Jose House and The dance factory, among others.

Phe Team takes over executive production of PHE Festival, an event promoted by the Culture Department of the Puerto de la Cruz City Council. It also has the sponsorship of the Government of the Canary Islands through the Canary Islands Institute for Cultural Development and the General Directorate of Youth, Canary Islands Tourism, as well as Tenerife Tourism - Tenerife! Wake Up Emotions and the Tenerife Island Council through the Culture Department. The brands Aqualia, Levi's, Heineken, IKEA, Pepsi, Jagermeister, Fuente Alta, Grupo RAHN, Labrador Cepsa Puerto de la Cruz, and Hemispheria also collaborate.

Goose's synthetic rhythms are set to close Phe Festival

The Belgian group joins the lineup of the ninth edition of the festival in Porto on Saturday with an electro rock, festive and dance-oriented proposal

#Phe2024 || #UnicoInCanarias || #WeTalkMusic

The synthetic rhythms and broad-spectrum electro rock in which the Belgian group's music moves Goose will be the closing soundtrack of the ninth edition of Phe Festivel, which will be held on August 23 and 24 in Puerto de La Cruz. The quartet formed by Mickael Karkousse, Dave Martijn, Tom Coghe and Bert Libeert comes to Phe Festival in excellent form and with a vibrant live performance that invites you to dance, in a year that celebrates the twentieth anniversary of a notable professional career.

Goose was formed in the summer of 2000 in Kortrijk, Belgium. After winning first prize at the Humo's Rock Rally competition for new bands in 2002, they recorded their first single with Teo Miller, Audience. A piece that would give the Danes a notable media prominence, since Coca-Cola used the debut single for television advertisements for the brand that were broadcast throughout Europe.

With six studio albums released to date, the debut album of Goose arrived in 2006 with the launch of Bring it on, the result of a contract with the Skint Records label. The band toured the festival stages of half of Europe and expanded their borders in the Australian and Japanese markets. Then came Synrise, Goose's second album, released in 2010, with art by Storm Thorgerson – graphic designer and member of the Hipgnosis team, author of iconic covers for Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath or Scorpions-, which made possible a new European tour for Goose. The piece Synrise which gives the album its title was remixed by Soulwax, among others.

Control Control Control, from 2012, recorded live in the studio with the collaboration of Paul Stacey (Noel Gallagher) and Dave Sardy (Oasis, ZZ Top); the fourth What You Need, from 2016, which reached number one on the Ultratop chart; the most recent Endless, from 2022, in addition to the live Nonstop (Live at Pukkelpop, 2018), and singles, remixes and rarities aside, complete the discography of a band with an electrifying live performance.

The Belgian band is celebrating its anniversary. An anniversary that spans more than two decades that Goose wants to celebrate with their fans. “The essence of Goose is the connection we share with you, our big family, whose passion and energy make each performance unforgettable,” the group details on its website, while announcing the start of the celebration concerts, after their time at Phe Festival, at the Lotto Arena on 16 November 2024. “It won’t be just any show; it will be a journey through time, in which we will relive the hits that defined our shared history and prepare for new melodies that hint at the exciting future that awaits us,” the quartet assures. 

"After Audience We released our debut album, Bring It On, which was the spark that ignited a journey beyond our wildest dreams. Our travels have taken us from intimate clubs to huge crowds, across Europe, China, Japan, North America, South America and Australia. Together we have created a discography that resonates with the rhythm of our shared experiences, from the anthemic high of Synrise to the pulsating rhythms of British Mode, Call Me and Words“Each note is a chapter in our collective story, which has earned us accolades and a revered place in the hearts of music lovers around the world,” the group explains.

In addition, the album is scheduled to be released on October 4th. G20SE, featuring the 20 most iconic songs from Goose's repertoire, along with two previously unreleased tracks. 

The authors of songs like Bring it on, Everybody, Check or Black Gloves will be on the stage of Phe Festival in Puerto de la Cruz on August 24, on the second day of concerts, on a Saturday in which there will be much to see, hear and dance to from artists such as the Danish group Danish group Trentemøller, León Benavente -in what will be his second visit to the Phe Festival after the 2017 edition-, shego, Camels, Vera Fauna, Mavic and Nala Rami. All this with a previous Friday of opening of the festival in Puerto de la Cruz, also of long duration, with the performances of Enrique Ive, Jela, Pipiolas, Repion, Dove, twilight joe, Solea Morente, Sen Senra and Lori Meyers

Phe Yoga and the festival's desire to create a yogi community in Puerto de la Cruz and Tenerife

The vision of a festival like Phe is constantly evolving. Both in the musical section and in the parallel activities, the festival always seeks to take a step forward each year. A good example of this is Phe Yoga, one of the most eagerly awaited proposals within the complementary programme of experiences.

#PHE2024 || #UnicoInCanarias || #WeTalkMusic

In 2024, the big news is looking towards the El Peñón stadium in Puerto de la Cruz with the Yoga Meeting next Saturday, August 24. A meeting for the outdoor practice of yoga, an experience that Nuria from ON Studio Canarias, coordinator of Phe Yoga, describes as ideal.

All the information about this meeting and the different workshops is in the following link: https://Phefestival.es/Phe-yoga-2024/ 

Nuria and the rest of her teammates are still hoping that the morning meeting on Saturday 24th will be better once again. “Every year there is more interest in this outdoor practice meeting and attendance has been doubling almost every year. This year they expect more than a hundred people to attend the practices.”

Since 2020 until now, when these meetings were incorporated into the festival and coinciding with the COVID-19 pandemic, both the discipline of yoga and its development within this music festival have grown and changed a lot. 

According to the coordinator of Phe Yoga, “the number of people practising this discipline is growing worldwide and it is very noticeable. It is integrated into gyms and sports centres, which was previously almost non-existent. Yoga now occupies much more space than just specialised gyms, achieving greater visibility and diffusion.”

The event on Saturday 24th will include four consecutive sessions designed to open up a range of possibilities for regular practitioners and those who wish to start taking up yoga. Phe Yoga seeks not only to offer a space for practice, but also to foster a community, creating meaningful connections between the festival and the city. “This event is a perfect showcase for those who have not yet had the opportunity to approach yoga. And for those who have already started, it is a unique opportunity to explore new disciplines, from the most traditional to the most innovative, and to interact with the other participants.”

In addition to the Saturday meeting, the proposal extends to the rest of the city during the previous week and there are several yoga centres in Puerto de la Cruz that participate in this initiative. Tushala Yoga Studio, El Árbol Terapias, Mocán, Casa Bergantín and Sol y Luna will offer classes from Monday 19th to Friday 23rd August in different modalities and times. Phe Festival appreciates the availability and collaboration of all the centres participating in Phe Yoga. “It is a very satisfying job for the whole team because it creates a healthy and enriching environment. For us it is vital that the schools in Puerto de la Cruz have this visibility and make it possible to offer this diverse programme of activities”, says Nuria. 

Returning to the realm of evolution in recent years, yoga has broadened its focus, integrating both meditation and physical aspects in response to the current needs of society. At Phe Yoga, a variety of practices are offered, ranging from aerial yoga and acroyoga to sessions of inversions, stretching and ecstatic dance, the latter closely related to dance and movement. “Yoga as a philosophy and lifestyle, ranges from a deeply meditative practice to more physical classes that require demanding postures, ideal for focusing attention, improving our body awareness, even for athletes from other modalities who want to improve their performance,” explains Nuria. “Our goal with this program is to make yoga known in all its forms, showing its multiple benefits for health and well-being,” she adds.

TRANSFORMING PHELLOWERS INTO ENGAGED PARTICIPANTS

At the first edition of Phe Yoga in 2020, a group of people decided to participate in the event out of curiosity, without any prior experience in yoga. Attracted by the idea of a different activity and the relaxed atmosphere of the proposal, they signed up without great expectations. However, what started as a casual activity turned into something much more meaningful. During that session, these people who were very fond of the festival, discovered not only the physical benefits of yoga, but also a sense of calm and inner connection that they had not experienced before. Inspired by that first practice, they began attending regular classes with different teachers who participated in the festival. Today, they are committed practitioners, and every year they return to Phe Yoga, not only to enjoy the festival, but also to reconnect with the discipline that transformed their lives. “We never thought that something as simple as stretching and being calm would lead us to a path of well-being that is now a fundamental part of our lives,” they commented in the 2023 edition, fondly remembering their first experience at the event.

THE UNEXPECTED ENCOUNTER BETWEEN NIGHT OWLS AND EARLY RISERS

In past editions of Phe Yoga, morning sessions began at 8am, a perfect time for regular yoga practitioners who enjoy saluting the sun early in the morning. However, this schedule posed a challenge for festival-goers who wanted to make the most of Phe Festival’s nights of music and fun.

During the 2022 edition, a group of friends, still energized from the night before, spontaneously decided to attend the morning yoga session. They arrived at the session with laughter and yawns, not knowing exactly what to expect. At first, a mix of sleepiness and curiosity dominated the mood among them. But as the session progressed, they began to feel an unexpected sensation. The postures and conscious breathing seemed to dispel the tiredness, replacing it with a sense of calm, mental clarity, and revitalized energy.

One of the friends, Javier, later shared: “I thought that after sleeping so little, yoga would be torture. But it turned out to be the opposite. It was like a reset for the body and mind. I left there ready to face another day of festival.”

Taking into account experiences like Javier’s and seeking to further integrate the festival community, this year the organizers of Phe Yoga have decided to delay the start of the sessions to 10am. This change not only allows night owls to rest a little longer, but also facilitates greater participation, creating an inclusive space where both early risers and night owls can meet and share the transformative experience of yoga.

Music and artists that resonate in Phemenino

The ninth edition of the Phe Festival features female voices of different styles and generations such as Solea Morente, Shego, Pipiolas, Repion, Jela and Mavica, who will perform in Puerto de la Cruz on August 23 and 24.

#PHE2024 || #UnicoInCanarias || #WeTalkMusic

The ninth edition of PHE Festival, which will be held on August 23 and 24 in Puerto de la Cruz, has a woman's name in a large part of its artistic lineup, with the presence of singers, composers and instrumentalists of different generations and styles, such as the Tenerife native Jela, Solea Morente, Pipiolas, Repion, Mavic and shego. Big names on the national and international scene, such as Solea Morente, one of the headliners of the first day of PHE Festival, along with the band Lori Meyers, who has not given up his family roots and his flamenco background to experiment with pop rock and more alternative sounds; and other figures called to be phenomena in their field, revelation artists, etc., a label that falls on shego, Mavic and Pipiolas and in the singer from Tenerife Jela. And without losing sight of the impact of the Cantabrian duo Repion, active for over a decade. 

A group of women with a wide-spectrum creative universe in which there is everything: rap and urban sounds with a different pace that feed the new musical harvest in the Canary Islands; flamenco substratum with splinters of rock and pop; grunge and post-adolescent frustration; and electric dreams of pop melancholy, among other kinds of style. 

Of the aforementioned formations, four will perform on Friday 23rd, on the first day of concerts of PHE Festivel. A long afternoon in which the public that comes to the traditional call of the festival of El Puerto in the penultimate week of August, will be able to discover the live performances of Jela, Pipiolas, Repion and Solea Morente, along with other bands performing that day, such as: Enrique Ive, Dove, Joe Twilight, Sen Senra and Lori Meyers. The other two bands with women's names, Mavic and shego, perform on Saturday 24th and share the stage with Nala Rami, Camels, Leon Benavente and Trentemøller, among others. 

The singer from Tenerife Jela She is an artist who looks beyond rap and last year released her first album, Temple. An artist called to write major pages and who is presented at the PHE Festival in a state of effervescence with a bouquet of songs that already walk alone, like Warrior Rial, Temple, The Messiah or I love you to death, all of his recent harvest.

Jela will be accompanied live by a band of musicians that make up Manu Alles To the bass, Fernando Angulo on percussion, Hector Left to the guitars, and Alberto Martin on keyboards. And she will be the second to perform on Friday 22nd after the opening with Enrique Ive. After the Tenerife singer, the time sequence of the first day, barring any changes, leads to two very different sound proposals: Pipiolas and RepionPipiolas is a duo based in Madrid, a creation of the Elefant label, formed by the Gran Canarian Adriana Ubani and the madrilenian Paula Reyes, and with its own musical language, mature, fresh and fun, it is asking for a place thanks to its first album There is no god and countless stellar collaborations. 

The blame for the success shared by the two singers and actresses who embarked on this story that began in 2022 with the release of the single Daffodil, They have songs like I'm not a Xoxo, Love song for you, Own ballads, Pogo at home, Saint Peter, Do you dance or what? or Baby, among others from the repertoire of There is no god

A special proposal that of Pipiolas, who have toured half the peninsula with festivals and concerts in which they have conquered the public and critics with a pop full of edges and fantasy in which it is impossible to get bored, in which there are great melodies, arrangements and an overflowing imagination. With a handful of hits in their repertoire and they are called to be one of the great news of Spanish pop in the coming years, because they are creative, effervescent, unprejudiced, brainless, illuminated, brilliant, fun, exciting and energetic. The Pipiolas live line-up is completed with Philip Sauerwald, guitar; Alvaro Angel, battery; and Marina Hurtado, To the bass. 

With the Cantabrian duo Repion The PHE Festival enters into other sound coordinates. The sisters Marine (guitar and vocals) and Teresa Inesta (drums and backing vocals) feed this creature with a lot of vitality, teenage rage and a touch of melancholy. A sound that draws from grunge and pop but goes beyond and connects with alternative rock references such as Sleater-Kinney or Juliana Hatfield, and others such as Dover, Big Thief or the Beatles. 

A rock discharge with a knife between the teeth, with just the right amount of joy in the lyrics and a live performance that runs over. Their latest work is the EP We all fix it together (Mushroom Pillow, 2024), released last May, which includes candies of the caliber of The day doesn't give me any time, Friday, what about you? and They come from having a good time. In his discography we must notice the debut album Poppy hurts (2016) and the album of the same name Repion (2023) and first for Mushroom Pillow. 

The two sisters who give life to Repion They collaborate on other parallel projects: Marina is a guitarist and backing vocalist in Mikel Erentxun's band; and Teresa is a singer and guitarist in a new pop-punk project called Aiko, as well as a drummer in Yawners. 

The voice of Solea Morente is one of the great protagonists of the first day of PHE Festivel 2024. The flamenco roots of the Morente saga preside over each of their movements, whether towards pop or alternative rock, among projects of different nature in 

those he has worked on. His will be the stage before the concerts of Sen Senra and Lori MeyersThe name of Soleá Morente compels us to pay tribute to one of the most important families in Spanish music, formed by the Granada singer Enrique Morente and the dancer Aurora Carbonell. 

A versatile and chameleonic creator who has projected herself in film and television and especially in music. Her beginnings were in 2011 with Los Evangelistas, a tribute band to her father Enrique Morente, which included members of Los Planetas and Lagartija Nick, with whom she would publish the EP as lead singer Meeting (2013). Since then, Soleá Morente, who in 2018 received the Princess of Girona Foundation Award for Arts and Letters, has released four albums in which she has been able to touch on countless styles with radically different parameters: electronic, rock, pop, indie, shoegazing, techno, rumba and flamenco. There will have to be a way (The Volcano/Sony, 2015), Ole Lorelei (The Volcano/Sony,2018), What you are missing (Elefant, 2020) and Aurora and Henry (Elefant, 2021), are the long-form works to date in which Soleá Morente has had on her side big names from the national scene, including Guille Milkyway (La Casa Azul), Ana Fernández-Villaverde (La Bien Querida), David Rodríguez (La Estrella de David) or Jota (Los Planetas).

A SATURDAY WITH MAVICA AND SHEGO

On Saturday 24th the PHE Festival puts the spotlight on Mavica and Shego. Mavic, an artist and producer from Cartagena based in London, will be the second performance of the second day of concerts, while the Madrid trio Shego will do so later and before the festival in El Puerto and its public meet again with León Benavente. 

Mavic is the project of artist Marta Casanova. Her sound mixes folk with indie, pop and electronic sounds, a kind of pop melancholy wrapped in electronic production that has earned her millions of plays on streaming platforms. She moved to London when she began studying Performance and Production at the London College of Creative Media. There she wrote her first EP, Gonand, which includes the song Fire Critically acclaimed on The Line of Best Fit and The 405. In September she released her debut album Sometimes a person never comes back (but that's okay), which received support from Rolling Stone, Billboard Latin, Clash, C-Heads, Early Rising, Paste, BBC Radio 1, KCRW and took her to the front page of the playlists Indie Radar from Spotify and Global Rising from Tidal. MAVICA has frequently performed at festivals such as Primavera Sound, Mad Cool and O Son Do Camino and has supported Alice Phoebe Lou, Roo Panes, Blanco White and Low Island. 

shego is a rock band from Madrid formed by Maite, Raquel and Charlotte. MIN Award for Best Emerging Artist 2023 and an album released Good luck girl (2023), Shego is another of the pearls in the Saturday session of the PHE Festival with hymns full of light and shadows that lead us through love, grief, rage, and internal conflicts. In February 2023 they released their debut album and have a second work in the pipeline with which they intend to make a statement to establish themselves as the band leading the resurgence of rock in Spain. They co-produce with the help of Asha Lorenz (member of the group Sorry) what will be an album full of vertices in the 

that play with the idea of two sides of the coin, hymns full of light and shadow that lead us through love, grief, rage, and internal conflicts. Strength and darkness in a project that exudes freshness and maturity in equal parts and that confirms to us that shego is without a doubt the present and the future.

Phe Team takes on the executive production of PHE Festival, an event promoted by the Culture Department of the Puerto de la Cruz City Council. It also has the sponsorship of the Government of the Canary Islands through the Canary Islands Institute for Cultural Development and the General Directorate of Youth, Canary Islands Tourism, as well as Tenerife Tourism - Tenerife!

Sen Senra will set style in Puerto de la Cruz

The urban pop phenomenon arrives in Puerto de la Cruz in its first concert in the Canary Islands with the tour PO2054AZ, also the title of his new three-volume album project. The artist is crowned as one of the greats of the Spanish scene, setting trends in each work.

#UnicoInCanarias || #WeTalkMusic

The urban pop phenomenon, Sen Senra, is one of the outstanding artists presenting the ninth edition of PHE Festival, which will be held on August 23 and 24 in the Tenerife municipality of Puerto de la Cruz. It will be the first concert that Sen Senra, the alias of Christian Senra, will hold in the Canary Islands and it seems like an exceptional opportunity to enjoy the live performance of this musician and composer born in Pontevedra, who has collaborated with figures such as C. Tangana, Julieta Venegas, Feid or Tainy, and since his debut album in 2015, he has conquered the public and the national and international market with songs that are anthems.

Sen Senra arrive at PHE Festivel in 2024 in Puerto de la Cruz with the tour PO2054AZ and the title of his new three-volume recording project. The title of the album and the tour is the license plate of a Peugeot 205 that his father owned, and which, on his countless trips, he discovered the music that would lead him to become an artist. Nostalgia for the past is the highway that leads to his most brilliant project to date. And it is Sen Senra's excuse to present an emotional journey, in which he discovers his most eclectic songs, where the urban is contaminated by pop, American influences, avant-garde and experimentation.

A journey that begins with I don't want to be a singer, a declaration of intent from the Galician ("I don't want to be a singer, I want to be something better"), going through pieces like One Of Those Cats, beside Sky Breaking (Feid, J Balvin…) or Completely crazy, produced by Tainy (Bad Bunny, Rosalía…), Senra DNA, Blue Jeans and a Crop Top, My North (with Ian Isiah), No Excuse, and others of the stature of Family or It doesn't matter what people think. 

From his native Pontevedra, Sen Senra He began in 2015 to deliver songs condensed into two albums that immediately showed his facility for melody and for taking other people's references and turning them into his own. Permanent Vacation (2015) and The Art Of Self-Pressure (2017) were introductory albums, in English, that have little to do with the sound universe that Sen Senra manages today. The decisive moment in the Galician's career would come with his third job, Sensations (2020), produced by Anxo Ferreira. Here were hits that came to stay like YI don't need you, Don't let me go anymore, LIKE the fire or  86.400.

ROMANTIC ICON

Sen Senra He is a multifaceted and multidisciplinary musician of infinite charisma, according to his record company. A romantic icon with which the public and fellow generations immediately identified. Good proof of this was the call from C. Tangana to lock themselves up to write together How easy, a topic that became the seed of chrome heart (2021), EP that served as a follow-up to the celebrated Sensations (2020). A job that with pieces like wu wu, his collaboration with Feid, helped him continue opening the doors of the Latin public. His ability to transcend generations and audiences was demonstrated with another duet, in this case with none other than Julieta Venegas in Of you, with Manuel Lara, known for his productions for Kali Uchis, at the controls. Highlight, among their most recent collaborations, the song Beautiful coincidence, with Aitana, recorded months ago. The two met at her concert in Bogotá at the end of last year and decided to cross paths. 

Sen Senra He is the fashionable artist. The tours through Latin America, with a special focus on Mexico where he has a legion of followers, with full houses at the Pepsi Center in Mexico City, among other milestones, packed concerts at the Wizink Center and at the Sant Jordi Club, show of the impact of his music and the public that follows him. Festivals such as Bilbao BBK Live, FIB Benicassim, Morriña Festival, Santander Music Festival, Sonorama Ribera, Festival B in Barcelona, FIZ Festival in Zaragoza or Cooltural Fest in Almería, as well as PHE Festival, mark Sen Senra's agenda until September of this year. In November, he has concerts scheduled at the National Auditorium in Mexico City. and in Puebla. 

The Galician artist will be at the first day of concerts at PHE Festival 2024, on Friday, August 23, as one of the highlights of the lineup along with Lori Meyers, which also features the performances of Solea Morente, Joe Crepúsculo, La Paloma, Repion, Pipiolas, Jela and Enrique Ive. The PHE Festival completes its ninth edition with a second day, on Saturday the 24th, with lthe new yorkers !!! (Chk Chk Chk) and the danes Trentemøller, and national artists León Benavente, Mavica, Vera Fauna, Camels, and the Gran Canaria project Nala Rami.

#PHE2024 || #UnicoInCanarias || #WeTalkMusic

The ninth edition of PHE Festival, which will be celebrated on August 23 and 24 in the Tenerife municipality of Puerto de la Cruz, It is a unique proposal in the scene of music festivals held in the Canary Islands. With an eclectic lineup of artists in terms of styles and musical proposals, which is one of the hallmarks of the festival, PHE 2024 embraces national indie, emerging pop, urban sounds that are changing the rhythm on the street and in life, and dance music with an international seal. There will be two days of concerts with more than 20 hours of live music in a capital edition of Phe Festival which this year has managed to bring together in Puerto de la Cruz top-level international references such as New Yorkers !!! (Chk Chk Chk) and the danes Trentemøller, in addition to a generous catalog of national artists among veterans of national indie, such as those from Granada Lori Meyers, who will do their first concert in Tenerife; the reunion with Leon Benavente, which repeats in Phe Festival after his performance in the 2017 edition; or the Galician phenomenon of urban pop, Sen Senra, which debuts live in the Canary Islands from the hand of Phe Festival.

PHE Festival celebrates its ninth edition, consolidating its commitment to music and current trends on the islands, a work for which it has been recognized as one of the best cultural events in the Canary Islands in the ranking prepared each year by the Foundation's Culture Observatory Contemporary.

A sound menu for all ears and audiences that turns Puerto de la Cruz into an exclusive meeting point with artists who are unquestionable references in their style and who have set and are setting trends. A total of 18 musical proposals on a poster that complete Soleá Morente, Joe Crepúsculo, La Paloma, Repion, Pipiolas, Shego, Camellos, Vera Fauna, Mavica and Nala Rami.

A FRIDAY WITH LORI MEYERS

The first day of PHE Festival 2024 On Friday, August 24, the main dishes will be the people of Granada Lori Meyers and the Galician Sen Senra, in a sequence of concerts that from mid-afternoon presents the performances of Solea Morente, Joe Crepúsculo, La Paloma, Repion, Pipiolas, Jela and Enrique Ive

With the presence of Lori Meyers, in his first concert in Tenerife, PHE Festival settle accounts with his story. And there is no song by the people of Granada that is not an anthem, explosive songs that promise to make us fly. Lori Meyers has one of the best repertoires in Spanish music with major pieces such as Getting drunk, My reality, Time will pass, The sun always shines, High fidelity or Neon lights, among other. Active since 1998, their last and seventh album Infinite spaces (2021) acknowledges receipt of the past and projects itself into the future with stoicism, although without lowering its arms or giving up its weapons.

Friday's closing is in the hands of Lori Meyers. Before it will be Sen Senra, the alias of the Galician Christian Senra, a versatile musician with whom international artists such as C. Tangana, Julieta Venegas, Feid and Tainy have already collaborated. In 2019 he published the album Sensations, which would be a turning point in his career. The Galician artist has refined his own sound, marking ground. And proof of this is his most recent work PO2054AZ: a license plate of an old Peugeot 205 from Pontevedra that invites you to share an emotional journey where the urban allows itself to be loved by other musical cultures. 

The voice of Solea Morente is one of the great protagonists of the first day of PHE Festivel 2024. The flamenco root of the Morente saga presides over his every movement, whether towards pop or alternative rock, between projects of different natures on which he has worked. His will be the stage before Sen Senra and just after the Barcelonan twilight joe of good account of his dance verbena, the tour that has put him on the road and brings him to Puerto de la Cruz. 

The direct ones of La Paloma, Repion, Pipiolas and Jela will mark the first hours of the ninth of the Phe Festival in a day that will open Enrique Ive, Canarian-British singer and composer who fuses pop with touches of jazz, bossa nova and elements of soundtracks. 

It is followed by the verb of the Tenerife singer Jela, an artist who raises her sights beyond rap and who released her first album last year Temple. After Jela arrives the turn of Pipiolas, the duo of Adriana and Paula, another phenomenon that the Phe Festival is keeping an eye on and that with a musical language of its own, mature, fresh and fun is asking for passage with a first album There is no god and countless stellar collaborations.

Ahead, the grunge pop practiced by the Cantabrian duo Repion and which sisters Marina and Teresa have been feeding for more than a decade. Words greater than guitar and drums, vitality, rage, post-adolescent frustration and a touch of melancholy to warm the temperature of the PHE Festival; and one of the national bands that has been going strong due to attitude and repertoire with noise rock as an alibi, the people from Madrid Dove.

DANCE SATURDAY

The second day of Phe Festival, on Saturday, August 24, leads to the dance floor with the presence of the New York band  !!! (Chk Chk Chk) and the Danish group Trentemøller. Two dance sequences of a different nature whose live performances will be the closing of what is expected to be another night and another dream festival in Puerto de la Cruz.

Music will have this day Nala Rami, the project of Gran Canaria saxophonist Alan Himar, a slave to the funk of yesterday and today, who reaches Phe Festival with the Sonora Passport which was awarded by the emerging bands contest Sonora Las Palmas de Gran Canaria 2024, in addition to achieving first prize in the contest. 

From here, a carousel of emotions and styles, with Mavic, an artist and producer from Murcia living in London, whose pop melancholy supported by electronic production translates into millions of views on streaming platforms; Vera Fauna, a generous dose of pop psychedelia and neo flamenco from Seville, where blues or Jamaican rhythms or whatever best suits the band also appears, as can be seen on the album The best years (2023), the second reference that includes songs like Career House or Tuesday, in collaboration with Kiko Veneno; and camels, Madrid band with a punk attitude with three published works, Stylebook (2022) is their latest album, and a party repertoire to sing in Puerto de la Cruz as the occasion deserves.

The second part of Saturday's day in PHE Festival leads to the dance floor. You will surely remember it Nick Offer, the vocalist of the Americans !!! (Chk Chk Chk), which close the night, with one of their incendiary headline songs, Dancing is the best revenge (Dancing is the best revenge). 

But before Nic Offer and his people make the legend good, there is more to see, hear and dance in Puerto de la Cruz. After Pimp Flaco's set, it's the turn of shego, a Madrid rock band made up of Maite, Raquel and Charlotte. MIN Award for Best Emerging Artist 2023 and a released album Good luck girl (2023), Shego is another of the pearls on the Saturday day of the Phe Festival with hymns full of lights and shadows that lead us through love, grief, rage, and internal conflicts. 

The final stretch of Phe Festival program three concerts destined to make history: Leon Benavente, Trentemøller and those mentioned !!! (Chk Chk Chk).  It is the second time that León Benavente has visited Puerto de la Cruz. We are facing the essential bands of national indie rock that were born in 2012 with some of the most renowned musicians on the scene such as Abraham Boba, Eduardo Baos, Luis Rodríguez and César Verdú. With four albums released, the notable self-titled debut, 2, Let's go crazy and WAS, and a live performance that will not be forgotten, León Benavente arrives in Tenerife after completing the tenth anniversary tour throughout the country. 

From Copenhagen the Dane lands in Puerto de la Cruz Anders Trentemøller in band format. Although he began his career as a solo electronic artist, in styles such as techno, progressive house, ambient and chill out, in addition to working on productions and remixes for Röyksopp, The Knife, Mikael Simpson or Henrik Vibskov, among others, his work has experienced changes in style, always with the electronic substrate as the protagonist, in the band format. In what is his first concert in Tenerife and the Canary Islands, Anders Trentemøller will be accompanied, subject to changes, by Diisa Jakobs (vocals, guitars, synthesizers), Silas Tinglef (drums, guitars), Brian Batz (guitars) and Jacob Haubjerg (low), 

The closure is for  !!! (Chk Chk Chk). The dance punk whirlwind arrives from New York to make Phe and his audience dance with an impeccable career that took off in 1996 in Sacramento (California), with a repertoire of hits and es's still fresh ninth album Let it be blue (2022). At least, you have to dance them live, once in your life. 

PHE Festival It is due to live music and is its main strength as has been confirmed in all the editions held to date. But the festival also offers an exceptional complete experience and a catalog of parallel activities during the event week that include exhibitions by emerging artists from PHE Gallery, a massive yoga meeting outdoors, or the spectacular sea jumping championship by bicycle BMX Aqualia WaterJump.

THE SENRA PHENOMENON

Christian Senra is the name behind the alias 'Sen Senra', a versatile musician with whom international artists such as C. Tangana, Julieta Venegas, Feid and Tainy have already collaborated. In 2019, he published 'Sensaciones', an album that marked a before and after not only in his career, but in the artistic scene, which received him as a genuine revelation. The Galician artist has refined his own sound that has conquered an ever-growing audience, distancing himself from the stigmas of the urban genre, with brilliance, concision and, most importantly, style. The title of his latest album 'PO2054AZ' is, at first glance, a license plate of an old Peugeot 205 from Pontevedra but, behind it, hides the artist's most emotional journey, discovering his most eclectic songs, with an international sound that mixes the urban, American influences and avant-garde essence.
