Los Perlas started in the spring of 2006, created by Josete (bass and vocals), Luisete (drums and backing vocals), a guitarist whose name does not transcend, and Miguel on vocals. This initial lineup established the leitmotif of a band destined to navigate the turbulent waters of change and musical innovation.
The year 2007 marked the first major transformation, with the arrival of David P. and David Enrique (nicknamed "Pescador de Sonrisas"), expanding the musical dimension of the group. However, it was the departure of both Davids and the arrival of Alfio on drums that reconfigured the band, moving Luisete towards new musical horizons as guitarist and lead vocals.
Stability seemed a dream when, at the end of 2008, the band was forced into an almost annual hiatus. The resurgence came with Alex on drums, but it was short-lived; His departure gave way to Ferrán H., marking the beginning of a new era of consolidation and first experiences on important stages, such as his debut in Cardedeu in 2009.
The real changing of the guard occurred in 2014, with the inclusion of Daiana and the duo Ferran A.-Txema, the latter becoming the new creative force after the departure of the old members. The Txema era brought not only new music, but also a new direction: "Siempre la liá el mismo," recorded in 2016, became a testament to his growing influence.
The period between 2017 and 2020 witnessed further changes: the departure of Daiana and David P., the arrival and departure of Laura, and the consolidation of Txema not only as a composer but also as the lead voice of Los Perlas, with Campi contributing new textures on the guitar. This stage was marked by a search for identity, finally crystallized in the creative alchemy between Txema and Campi.
Currently, the departure of Ferran A. and Laura has only strengthened the core of Los Perlas: Josete, Txema, Campi and Sergi. The latter, a multi-talented drummer and backing vocalist, joined in November 2022, injecting vitality and harmony both on stage and in the studio, leading to the creation of acclaimed singles such as "I love coffee" and "Cazadora".
The release of the video clip for "I love coffee" in February 2024 is not just another chapter in the story of Los Perlas; It is a testament to their resilience and ability to reinvent themselves. Today, the band is immersed in the production of a new album, symbolizing not only its evolution but also its position as a beacon of creativity and cohesion in modern music. The story of Los Perlas is a tale of metamorphosis and passion, a musical journey that continues to defy expectations and define the spirit of true artistic innovation.
