ZEQUI, born in Murcia, Spain, is a musician who fell in love with folk and american rock music when he was a child. He’s been writing and composing his own songs with a guitar since the 80s, during his stay in England, where he was inspired.

ZEQUI has developed his own style through a wide musical palette and with the influence of  artists such as Van Morrison, Simon & Garfunkel, Joe Cocker, Neil Young, Nick Drake, Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan.

Back in Spain, after several years, he continued composing and struggling on until now. He took a leap of faith and dived into the pool, showing the poetry and the emotion of his songs, together with  a band comprised of some of the best musicians of in Murcia, such as Sergio Bernal (drums) or Sergio Valcárcel (bass). ZEQUI has always been undressing his soul thanks to English harmony, but  he also bets on Spanish.

MUSICAL BACKGROUND

On the Road – Remember Tour (CD+DVD) was his first project, presented and lauded by music critics and the audience in Sala 12yMedio (Murcia) in the end of 2013.

Shortly afterwards, in the  summer of 2014, ZEQUI recorded his first EP Down to Earth, with five songs that were the starting signal of a national tour in Spain. It is called “small tour in small rooms”, but full of simplicity and quality, with the chance of playing in enclosed places where people could listen to, not only his personal, mature and pained voice, but also to the raw emotions of the live band .

Taking off is the last EP, presented in Sala 12yMedio in October, 2016. It is defined as the jump to an unexplored road with no rules and no limits. This new sound, with more crunch, will break with the last ones.
