Day one began with the official opening of the hand of telescopes, an emerging band of Cordoba, which deployed all its indie sound with aires Mac DeMarco in the Main Stage 1, a hungry audience of music who enjoyed the good vibe during the half-hour show. Come noon it was the hour of the show of 1915, a young band in ascent that made dance and sing to the people with their hit “Police” and more songs from her album “Flag”. Appeared right after knowing Russia in the other main stage, with an invitation to enjoy well-crafted love songs and catchy melodies. With the Visual of that country, “Russian” Mateo Sujatovich showed why their debut album was as well received by the audience, accompanied by her excellent band and their great compositions. The virtuoso touch in this section came from the hand of Escalandrum, a project where it participates Daniel Piazzolla, grandson of Astor, and where the musical quality of their performers dominated the scene. No visual and a sound proposal away from the common Festival, the band gave musical Chair with his great ability to blend jazz, tango, folklore and Latin American rhythms in a show that left most nerd-musical audience happy. (The evidence is in this version of “Adiós Nonino”) Already for a little after 15 pm, and with larger audiences, Parcels appeared onstage with all a cataract of indie/funk/pop hits executed to perfection.
