STARBLUES New Recording

Clarity, authenticity, and the habit-turned-custom of crafting great songs could set a band apart from many others. Using blues as a primary influence to achieve a unique sound and elevate it to the status of a style is undoubtedly a success, an achievement reserved for only a few. Determination, hard work, and faith are indispensable ingredients to achieve this.

Away from trends and tendencies, hailing from the heart of Euskadi, StarBlues was formed in 2010 in the Goierri region. Their proposal stands on two fundamental principles: Blues-Rock essence and Euskera language, paying special attention to lyrics. From the release of their first single in 2013 titled “Amets gaitzko bat,” through their debut record named “Gu geu” in 2016, “Hitz gatibuak” release in 2020, and after several lineup changes, the band led by guitarist and vocalist Jon Barreros consolidates with Mikel Atxeaga on bass, Yon Labayen on keyboards, and Unai Lopetegi on drums and percussion. A band under Barreros’ direction that has emerged as a reference in the circuit, one of the most genuine and original proposals on the scene, and undoubtedly the primary exponent of Blues sung in Euskera.
