Krama, under the direction of Spyros Kaniaris, is known for its ability to fuse the traditional rhythms of the Balkans, Greece and the shores of the Black Sea with modern influences, creating a sound experience that transcends cultural boundaries. The band stands out for its use of Mediterranean melodies combined with complex rhythms and harmonies that play between openness and tension, capturing the essence of European musical diversity.

Krama's repertoire includes lyrics in Valencian, many of which are original works or adaptations of the poetry of notable figures such as Vicent Andrés Estellés and Isabel García Canet, as well as translated versions of renowned Greek poets such as Kostas Karyotakis and Odisseas Elitis. This approach not only enriches the local music scene with its vibrant fusion of styles, but also celebrates the poetic and cultural heritage of the region.

This event promises to be a memorable evening for lovers of music and culture in Xàbia, providing a space for the appreciation of artistic diversity and musical innovation.
