The director of the Galician Agency for Cultural Industries, Jacobo Sutil, participated in the presentation of the Ducia e Pico cycle at Sala Riquela. This initiative, driven by Luneda Producións with support from the Xunta de Galicia, will showcase around twenty musical proposals across eight Galician venues until May 2027.
As explained by the representative from the Ministry of Culture, Language and Youth, the initiative primarily supports emerging projects, with a notable emphasis on those led by women. The programme features a mix of roots music, contemporary folk, pop, indie, funk, and sound experimentation.
Having commenced in June, the cycle has already visited venues in Mos, Cambados, and Ferrol. It will also take place in Santiago de Compostela, Boiro, Vilar de Santos, Melide, Pontedeume, and will return to Mos and Cambados.
The upcoming event will feature Abril and Lontras, who will present their albums Medrar and Caras no luma on Friday at A Pousada da Galiza Imaxinaria in Boiro. Following this, on the 20th, the Burgos band El Nido will conclude their La Constancia tour at Sala Riquela, offering a contemporary reinterpretation of Castilian folklore. November will also see performances from Unto Vello on the 21st in Mos, Maricarme on the 22nd in Cambados, and L'arannà and Carmela on the 27th in Santiago de Compostela.
In December, Xiro and Bouba will perform on the 12th in Vilar de Santos, followed by Brassica Rapa on the 19th in Melide. In 2027, Brúa and BÖJ will share the stage on the 12th of March in Boiro, with Leticia Rey performing in Pontedeume on the 24th of April and Tres Pesos on the 22nd of May.
Ducia e Pico is one of nine cycles included in the Xunta's funding line for concerts in venues, established through agreements between the Xunta de Galicia and the sector. This initiative has a budget of approximately €360,000 for the 2026-2027 biennium, aimed at promoting ongoing activity in these spaces, professionalising the sector, facilitating artist circulation, and creating new audiences.
