THE story behind

Cristóbal Rey Band was formed in Berlin, in May 2022 when ​the vocalist/charanguist Cristóbal Rey decided to put some ​songs together and record a new solo album. From 2018 the ​composer was focused on his Band Aquafaba, and he felt ​that was time to put in motion a new solo album where he ​could print a more intimate and personal journey.

Rey found assistance in bassist Tomás Peralta to co-​produce the album, who would be also in charge of ​recording and mixing it. And then the world-class ​musicians David Guy (drums) and Giacomo Cantarini ​(electric guitar), both coming from the jazz and rock ​scene of Berlin, would add the spices needed for this ​journey.

As the album ended up being quite different from what Rey ​did until now, more progressive and psychedelic, he ​decided to call it Cristóbal Rey Band, as a way of drawing ​a line with his previous albums, but also giving credit to ​the contribution of each one in the band.
