Rumba knows no borders

Cross-border Catalan rumba with cobla influences.

01

Festival spirit, seasoned craft

Els Delai play Catalan rumba from Empordà, with an open gaze towards Vallespir and Roussillon. Their live show blends roots, humour and a serious urge to make the square dance.

Who are they?

The project began as a Catalan rumba duo in the early 2010s. Over time, its universe opened up to hip-hop, Balkan rhythms, pop and Latin sounds without losing its rumbero heartbeat.

Today the project expands into a full band, with vocals and guitars, bass, drums and backing vocals, trombone and tenora: a wide sound made for big stages.
