The dialogue between the avant-garde and tradition, the tension between the familiar and the unknown… Everything that makes Guitarricadelafuente one of the most fascinating voices of his generation is present in Spanish Leather, his second album. A work that consolidates the style that brought him recognition and propels him into the future.
