Dear Akaza Blog readers,

This week, as the summer starts showing signs of slowly making way for autumn, it is a good time to share some information about the upcoming concerts in Barcelona. Naturally the music scene of Barcelona is extremely diverse, and therefore you can see pretty much every kind of an artist at any time of the year. Nevertheless, let’s take a look at some gigs that have been selected through a sophisticated screening process (meaning: myself) and revise what is about to go down in this amazing metropolis of ours. 

On the 15^th of December one of the most famous bands of all time, Red Hot Chili Peppers, will be set loose in Palau Sant Jordi –arena in Barcelona. Even though the band has lost such a talent as John Frusciante, it remains to be one of the most exciting rock bands in this hemisphere. They have just released a new album and they can’t wait to introduce it to us. What we shall expect is some virtuous guitar and bass ingeniousness featuring top notch vocals. Who can resist this offer?!

Roxette, which many of you might remember from the days the world used to be a better place, is coming to Barcelona. Be sure not to miss this Swedish invasion of Barcelona on the 19^th of November. Catchy tunes played with raw energy is the main ingredient in this mix.

The Kooks is coming to the famous club Razzmatazz in Barcelona on the 23^rd of October. This British rock band that doesn’t rely on the TOP-40 radio-friendliness will bring us the light from Brighton! This autumn they will release their 3^rd studio album “Junk of heart” and they need you to celebrate the quality of it with them. 

If you are anywhere near Barcelona, or thinking of spending your holiday here in the 2011 autumn, do not allow yourself to forget the musical talent Barcelona has to offer!

Some nice concerts will take place in Barcelona this summer and we have listed these concerts below:

Dear Akaza-Blog Reader,

I think you all have already listened to the new catchy song of Shakira – Loca, which was released in most parts of Europe in the end of August. Maybe you also know that she shot the video for it in Barcelona in August 2010.

You can watch the video clip here and maybe recognize the city:
