Cruzando el Charco opens the doors of her rehearsal to La Viola

Crossing the Charco lives an idyllic moment. His new album, scars, has songs that became instant classics for a generation eager to live their rock experience and will have its official presentation in the city of Buenos Aires on June 4 and 9 at the Teatro de Colegiales. The album combines the joyful and melancholic spirit that characterizes them with the experience of the pandemic to come up with 13 songs of clean emotion and genuine hope.

To warm up the preview, the band from La Plata received La Viola in a rehearsal room in Palermo to give us privileged access to preparation for one of those dates that will form part of its history. In five songs, they summed up their career and showed us that they arrive razor-sharp.

“It is super special for us, it became an anthem. It’s very romantic and we were a little afraid of it at first because for a rock band, a ballad like that was not well seen. It has several special seasonings: there is Coti, who joined from the beginning, we made the clip together in her studio and we love her very much because we know that people enjoy her live a lot”.

Ours has magic

“It’s the oldest songs we have. I wrote it when I was 15, it’s a teenage love song. It cannot be missing from any list of topics and it unites couples a lot, they dedicate a lot to each other”.

“He’s our workhorse. It is very difficult for it not to be the closing of a live show because it has a lot of energy and it was the pivotal song in our career, which opened many doors for us and made us leave our city for the country”.
