ALBERTO BURGUEZ & AUGUST THARRATS | Friday's Blues
Alberto Burguez was born in Uruguay in 1992 and lived in Argentina. From a very young age, Alberto was part of the Blues scene in Buenos Aires for approximately ten years. At the age of 30 he moved to Barcelona, where he currently lives.
He has worked and shared the stage together with leading international artists such as James “Bogaloo” Bolden (BB King trumpeter), Kirk Fletcher, Lurrie Bell, Slam Allen, Sax Gordon or Jimmy Burns.
During his time in Argentina, for eight years he was part of the project “Martin Burguez & El Club del Jump”, with which he recorded three albums, touring Latin America and Europe. In her later years in Buenos Aires, he released his album "Stay Awake", beginning his career as a soloist, singer and composer.
He is currently participating in several projects in Barcelona, among which he stands out for his versatility in developing different formats, either as a soloist, in trio or in large-scale projects.
His musical style spans from traditional blues to boogie-woogie, swing and piano style of New Orleans, with influences ranging from Otis Spann to Albert Ammons, James Booker, Professor Longhair or Ray Charles.August Tharrats is without a doubt the pioneer of Blues and Boogie Woogie piano in Catalonia. At 4 years old he discovered the Blues listening to Ray Charles, Louis Armstrong, Lionel Hampton...
He is a totally self-taught piano virtuoso and that has meant that he has approached this music with humility, creating a very personal language. Perhaps for this reason musicians like Teddy Edwards, Gene "Mighty Flea" Connors or B.B. King has been complimented on his way of playing the blues.
An admirer of pianists from the Kansas City school such as Jay McShann, he is currently a prestigious bluesman on the national scene due to his interpretive quality and honesty on stage.
With his unbeatable technique and his undeniable feeling, he is a musician capable of captivating audiences with a personal style full of blues, boogie-woogie and swing with an enormous capacity for communication.
