Yesterday, Wednesday, October 27, we held a long meeting with members of the Granada group Varekai and 5 Lunas in the Malaga town of Fuengirola. We talked about everything a little, we analyzed the musical news of his area of activity and we saw the possibilities of working together in some way.
We sincerely believe that there are possibilities to do things together and show that the city of the Alhambra is musically very active. As we already know, one of our goals at 5 Lunas is to support music “made in Andalusia” and we continue to work on it.
5 LUNAS PRODUCCIONES – WE PRODUCE THE END OF THE 2021 TOUR OF
“ANDALUSIAN NIGHT, TRIBUTE TO ANDALUSIAN ROCK” AT THE SIERRA DE ARACENA THEATER ON DECEMBER 4
An honor and a pride for 5 Lunas Producciones, to announce the production of the last show, for this year (since next year will continue), of NOCHE ANDALUZA, TRIBUTE TO ANDALUSIAN ROCK. After touring practically since the month of May by many localities of Andalusia.
We review as a tribute, the most representative songs of the so-called
. An emotional journey back in time to the Andalusia of the seventies, where this historic musical and cultural event was born, which meant a before and after in the music of this country. Triana, Alameda, Medina Azahara, Lole y Manuel, Imán, Camarón, Guadalquivir, Mezquita, Miguel Ríos, Cai, Diego de Morón or Smash are some of the groups and artists honored. The show, in addition to live music, is supported by strictly documented voice-overs. This makes it have a clear cultural and informative character, and that the spectator enjoys a dynamic, fun, magical, and full of emotions concert, knowing at the same time in depth the history and music of an era that marked an entire generation.
Very close to the release of the fifth album of the Jerez group ONZA, we are going to reveal the cover of “Divergencia y Convergenvia”. It is our last production in 5 Moons, a work in which we bet blindly again. This time it is not an emerging group, but a long-lived band of Andalusian and national progressive rock. We are excited again with another project full of experience where we believe that progressive lovers will love it.
Different presentation with colors not used in the previous covers of the group. It is released in two modes: with the reference 5LPCD007 for its CD format and with the reference 5LPUSB002 for the pen drive format with audio, photos, song lyrics, etc. In this way we bring our music to the most modern audio playback systems such as smart TVs, sound bars, car players, portable speakers, etc.
The launch is scheduled for the last week of September of this 2021, we will announce it in our networks and will be available in the online store of 5 Lunas Producciones, in the concerts and soon on all digital platforms.
Again the progressive rock of Andalusia with international projection. Once again, 5 Lunas Producciones collaborates with the International Progressive Rock Festival SANTIAGO ART ROCK in its eleventh edition (STGO ART XI). The Spanish bands that we contribute on this occasion are the Sevillian VÁNDALUS with their Andalusian rock full of strength and forcefulness and the Jerez band ONZA with its progressive Spanish classic, neo prog point and typical touches of the Andalusian land. We are convinced that they will like them and it will be a new international window for the two Andalusian bands.
They will participate with bands such as TRETTIOARIAGA KRIGET (Sweden), ENINE (Russia), BUBU, PABLO EL ENTERRADOR (Argentina) and the Chileans EVOLUCION, SHILENSIS and ESPIRAL
The festival will be held on Saturday, August 28 in streaming through the Mylodón youtube channel, whose link we will announce in time so that we all enjoy it.
We reveal the cover of the album “Regreso al sur” by the Jaennense group GRANDE CRUZ with our reference 5LPCD006. Design by the artist “Chirrikenstein”, as he likes to sign his works. With his refined art and ingenuity he has achieved a great result representing the monk carrying the large cross or the BIG CROSS as they like. Very well worked the idea, the concept, the elements used and the impressive result. The back cover of the album is another great work that goes completely in harmony with the design of the cover and will also catch your attention.
Presentation of this new group, who already have new ideas for their second work. But first, they will present “Return to the South” in their live shows. From Monday, July 26, this work goes on sale in Digi CD format, totally ecological and will be available in our online store of 5 Lunas Producciones, in the concerts and soon on all digital platforms.
One of the main objectives of 5 LUNAS PRODUCCIONES is to support Andalusian rock as a musical and cultural heritage of Andalusia that cannot be missed. In the province of Jaén there was never an Andalusian rock group, that we have reference, until today, that we have discovered a band that begins to take its first steps with a tremendous illusion.
5 LUNAS will publish for the end of July, beginning of August, the first album of the Jaennense group GRANDE CRUZ that will be called “Regreso al sur”. New initiative with its own themes to reinforce the reconquest of Andalusian rock town by town, province by province throughout Andalusia. It is evident that there is a resurgence of rock music in Andalusia and 5 LUNAS continues its fight in defense of it. First group of Jaen, hopefully continue to emerge more, it seems that the new Andalusian rock continues its march.
During the visit to Malaga of Manel Cantón, singer and Spanish guitarist of the group Montoro, we met with him to talk about everything a little. Between memories and laughter, we reviewed the current musical panorama and of course, we talked about projects.
Manel was the leader of the band, the one who pulled the cart and talking to him came up with the idea of making a CD edition of Montoro’s first album “Esencia” published in 1991. This first album of the Catalan group with Andalusian components, was recognized over time and after the dissolution of the band. Montoro were loyal admirers of Triana. Its members had Andalusian roots (Córdoba and Granada) and were so impacted by Triana’s music and philosophy of life that their music was highly influenced by them. So much so that they even dedicated a song to Don Jesús de la Rosa.
We will work on the idea of publishing on CD that wonderful work called “Essence” with the intention of disseminating his music and offering the possibility to those who no longer have turntables to play that LP, to be able to listen to this group.
Another of the leading Andalusian progressive rock groups, ONZA, is reviewing the last details of the mixes of the new album they have recorded and that will be the fifth of the trajectory of the band led by Jaime Padilla since its origins.
“Divergence and Convergence”, as the work will be called, goes in a more neo-progressive line or neo-prog, as others would say. They try to give another twist to their music, with a very updated sound, beautiful new progressive compositions and others that remained in the bedroom.
Very soon this work will see the light with 5 Lunas Producciones. We are highly convinced that they will surprise more than one, because on the part of Onza and 5 Lunas, the best that each one could contribute to this interesting project has been put.
ANAIRT – FINISHED MIXING OF THE ALBUM “NUESTRO TIEMPO”
The recording sessions and mixes of ANAIRT’s first album were completed. The team of professionals with whom 5 Lunas Producciones works, has dedicated time and affection to the dream of the Sevillian band. It is currently in the process of mastering with analog equipment to achieve a “warm” sound, like our land. Alicia Vergara, responsible for the cover and graphic design of the album, is also giving the finishing touches so that the result is as attractive as possible.
We believe that it will be liked by the public and the most loyal followers of ANAIRT, we will pleasantly surprise them, because there are issues that from our point of view have improved a lot.
If everything goes according to plan, we will have “Nuestro tiempo”, which is the name of the album, in the first week of July. Now is the time for ANAIRT and all lovers of music and progressive rock with roots, our Andalusian rock.
Flame on, and no one thinks of blowing to extinguish it.

The poster of the STORM documentary is released where the names of all the people who were interviewed to provide information appear. It was delivered on Canal Sur TV and we eagerly await its first broadcast so that all the public can enjoy it.
As we all know, the end of the documentary was surrounded by tragedy due to the death of its producer: Kiko Medina. Kiko was an endearing, affectionate person who also bet on Storm by gambling his own money to make the documentary. Wherever Kiko is, he is sure to be proud that his bet and his latest project has been completed thanks to the insistence and dedication of Jesús Ponce and the new film production company (Saint-Denis Producciones) that took over to finish it. In this way KMPC presents a production by Kiko Medina in collaboration with Saint-Denis Producciones with the participation of Canal Sur Radio and Television. The Storm themselves say that behind them there is always like a black hand that hinders almost everything they do, but honestly in 5 Lunas Producciones we have always bet strongly on them and we will continue to do so. Together, I am sure that we will displace that hand definitively. It’s coming for you, Kiko.
Yesterday, Wednesday, June 9, the latest album of 5 Lunas was presented in Jerez. This is the reissue of the first and only album so far, by the Jerez group Sherish: “El Candil”. The place chosen was the room La Guarida del Ángel, where musicians, professionals and amateurs coincided who were welcomed with a glass of Xerez.
The event was presented in a very natural and close way by Salvador Vélez Cortés who began by talking about Sherish’s career and the links that since its inception always existed with 5 Lunas. He spoke of the importance of the continuity of Andalusian rock and the role that Sherish takes in keeping the flame burning, among other things hence the name “El Candil”. Later took the floor Juanma Rodríguez, keyboardist of Sherish, who on behalf of his colleagues showed the gratitude and support that the band has always received by the fans and especially by the producer that represents them. He commented anecdotes and experiences of the recording of the album and showed his happiness for this edition. Then Juan Antonio Vergara Soto, on behalf of 5 Lunas, commented details of the production of this reissue and expressed pride and satisfaction with the level of finish of the work. The notable improvements in the audio and graphic design (Totem GrafiArt) of the album were also highlighted and ended talking about the recording that is being carried out of Sherish’s second album and all the record projects that 5 Lunas Producciones has underway for this year.
He also attended the event as a representative of the legendary musicians of Andalusian rock, Andrés Olaegui (guitar of the group Guadalquivir), a musician in whom at the beginning of 5 Lunas the producer trusted him by publishing his third solo album and the first for the producer. He also talked about his new musical projects. Another musician who was called to take the stage was Mike Starry (Omni) who talked about the album that 5 Lunas is producing with them and that in the world of progressive rock has raised a lot of expectation, it will be Omni’s fourth. And to end the act, José Ramón Sánchez of the Nashville Studio also took the stage and thanked 5 Lunas for having them again on this occasion, because they are also united by many links with Sherish who was commenting.
The attendees could hear and acquire the album while various Sherish merchandising and between applause an act of coexistence was ended where everyone agreed that it was really worth deciding to make an edition with quality of that dream that four young people had in 2017.
To the times we currently live we must put a little imagination. It was always said that union is strength, so this year “Los chanclas” join “Los toreros muertos” and the tour “TOREROS CON CHANCLAS” is born. A fun and casual bet that their followers will have the opportunity to enjoy with that joy and peculiarity that characterize the two bands.
As we all know, the Cordovan Randy López is preparing his fourth solo album with important collaborations. This weekend Randy traveled to Seville so that Ángel Ruiz (guitar of Storm) recorded the guitars of a couple of songs for his new work that will be called “Apocalipsis”.
They recalled moments they shared with Storm and Expresión and later with Mezquita. The feeling between these two music was total, we had fun recording, eating and especially for the reunion.
The Andalusian rock group SHERISH presents the new edition of their first album “El Candil”
“ The place chosen is the room La Guarida del Ángel”
Wednesday, June 9, 2021 at 12:00 h. 5 LUNAS PRODUCTIONS in collaboration with the CULTURAL ASSOCIATION DOBLECEROCLUB and the living room THE ANGEL’S LAIR of Jerez, present in the aforementioned room, the new and very worked edition of the first album of the Jerez group SHERISH: “The Lamp”
When
SHERISH
(Jerez in Arabic) recorded “El Candil” in 2017 did not belong to the office of 5 Lunas Producciones. Now we rescue this first work with the challenge of making a total transformation. Not only is it presented in a new format (digifile) of beautiful vinyl cd with new graphic designs very attractive, and totally ecological. If not also, and this is the most important novelty, a work of musical archaeology has been carried out applying new mixes and meticulously recovering sounds and instruments that did not appear in the first edition. The icing on the cake has been that a new mastering has also been carried out, achieving a warmer and more analog sound, which we currently miss so much.
5 Moons It aims to enhance to the maximum the values and magic that this recording contained. The compositional quality and the waste of energy that the group gives off, was worth the effort.
Now we can enjoy this album again, because
SHERISH
It is one of the most prosperous groups of Andalusian progressive rock, with a marked Andalusian sound with arabesque passages and a great forcefulness in its rhythmic base. Another exponent of the so-called “new Andalusian rock” who aspire to take the baton of the legacy left by their legendary teachers and musicians who remain the main source of inspiration.
The sound of the group
SHERISH
It has a totally personal and unmistakable stamp that every time they get more followers. With this new Candil a new path is illuminated, which will be the preamble to the second album that we are currently recording and that we will publish before the end of the year.
It is also important to highlight the collaborations in this recording of artists such as: Fae Ramos (Los Delincuentes-Gipsy Rock), Randy López (Mezquita-Ex Medina Azahara), Paco Delgado (Cai), José Anillo, Fernando Caro, Jesús Melli and José Manuel Muñoz.
The young Andalusian rocker GATO VENTURA joins 5 Lunas. The strength of their carefree, original urban rock, full of energy and creativity becomes another new hiring option for our production company. In this way we expand the range of opportunities providing more variety.
Yesterday, Monday, May 17, 5 Lunas had an important meeting to find new allies to promote Andalusian rock in the province of Malaga. Varo (media) and Iñaki (former politician) support the new ideas and initiatives presented by 5 Lunas to continue with the expansion in the area. As the projects are consolidated, we will report.
Yesterday, Friday, May 7, a talk – colloquium on Andalusian rock was held at the facilities of “La Térmica” in Malaga. Organized by the Diputación de Málaga and presented by Héctor Márquez, the origins and evolution of Andalusian rock were discussed. Pepe Roca from the Alameda group and Manuel Imán, from the Imán Califato Independiente group were the invited musicians to tell and directly share their experiences. Talk very well directed by Héctor who knew how to get out of Pepe and Manuel the most human and spontaneous side of each of them.
They dared to sing between the two some brushstrokes to illustrate musically the act that was widely applauded by the attendees.Activities like this and a lot of promotion in the media is what we need to increase the attendance of the public in the concerts of any band or musician that sustains an Andalusian rock show.
We attended the event very interested accompanied by the musician Juan Delola, who is also contributing his grain of sand to the genre, and we show once again the support and our commitment to Andalusian rock that we love passionately.
Sin categorizar, Storm
