This February 18 and 19, the iconic Cosquín Rock festival will take place in the Cordovan city of the same name, sold out. Although this event, as its name indicates, vindicates rock, on this occasion, the line-up is particular because it has many urban artists such as Trueno, Dillom, the Spanish Rels B, Ca7riel and Paco Amoroso, Lara 91k, among others.
The Cosquín Rock is historic, it had its first date in 2001 and that today it has many ragpickers, indicates a update to current times and of course, understand what call the festival will have depending on the musicians who play.
In 2020 Trueno said “like it or not, we are the new rock n’ roll”, in the song “Sangría” ft. Wos from his first album “Atrevido” (2020).
If this phrase from the artist from the La Boca neighborhood is analyzed, at some point it makes sense being the ragpickers, the young musicians who impose a new genre, defy the system and talk about sex, drugs and love in the lyrics of his songs.
In accordance with the words of Thunder, Pedro Aznar, one of the greats of Argentine rock, said on the Caja Negra podcast “rock and urban music are family in rebellion”.
The trap has demonstrated its imprint in recent years by stomping on all levels, filling stadiums, setting trends and even winning awards such as the Gardel for Best Album of the Year that in 2022 he took it Wos for “Dark Ecstasy”.
