Cristina Mahelo She is an interdisciplinary artist: musician, craftsman and scenic and visual creator, her work flows between languages, mixing tradition and avant-garde with the naturalness of someone who has grown up in deep contact with her roots.
As to Lula Mora (Silvia and Sara) define their music as music of trade, of craftsmanship, that needs to be cared for in every detail, minimalist but meticulous, cooked over low heat.
For their part, the duo Isa Izquierdo & MVBA was born from the union of Isa Izquierdo (singer and songwriter from Tenerife) and MVBA (producer and DJ from Gran Canaria). It is a project that fuses reggae, DUB, experimental electronic music and other urban music.
Boreal Festival 2025 will also feature the winning musical proposal in the Sonora 2025, that of OM Dominguez, an artist originally from Gran Canaria who makes his debut in Tenerife with this performance. His musical proposal with his band is an eclectic fusion that transcends the limits of a single genre. In each work, OM Domínguez combines the essence of urban music with meticulous lyrical craftsmanship and Latin rhythms.
Another of the musical incorporations of the Archipelago in this edition of the Boreal is Nuria Herrero. Her multidisciplinary project explores the power of music, words, singing and the different sounds of percussion instruments as vehicles to make visible the realities that women and other silenced bodies go through, within contexts marked by the social, the ancestral and the symbolic.
