GORKA URBIZU

*Hasiera bat* is the first album signed by Gorka Urbizu under his own name. It consists of ten songs. Ten options. Ten decisions. They could have been different, but these are the ones: a love, a theory, a train, a place, a door, a colour, a fascination, a house, a fire. Nothing more.

*Hasiera bat*, by Gorka Urbizu, is the reverse of our frantic modern way of life, a work conceived with the calmness required for the creation of words and song. It is an invitation to meet with oneself and a secret place where there is no room for disillusionment. A raw attempt to offer a dose of beauty in the face of the barbarity of the world. Produced by Jordi Matas, this album shows many facets in its nakedness. Made with love and about love. Don’t escape too soon. It will come. It has come. And this is just the beginning.

*”Things are not like this/Things are like this/And in that belief/Our world is focused.”* That recognition shows the way. A cry for change. These songs are “as hard as a rock, as fragile as a leaf shaken by the wind.” The former lead singer of Berri Txarrak aims to create from another place: to clear away and clear away until reaching the marrow: *Hezurra*. Truth. A truth.
