Luz Casal presents her new tour and album Me voy a permitir, the most eclectic and unclassifiable work of her career. In this record she allows herself the pleasure of revealing ten different facets, as many as the songs: ten attitudes and ten ways of looking at and understanding the world. She moves with the freedom of someone who no longer needs to prove anything, showing her hand as a lady of French chanson, a contemporary voice of the Latin American songbook, a chronicler of everyday life and a rocker who never hung up her leather trousers. As Pablo Guerrero once said, Luz can sound as soft as silk or tear like the fangs of a wounded animal, able to sing from spite or hope, mischievous or radiant, always free.
This new show is a bridge between past and future, confirming her dual nature as an intuitive and talented composer and an exceptional performer, capable not only of singing but of inhabiting the songs, whether her own or others’.
Uninterested in pyrotechnics or artifice, she allows herself to follow only the signals of her own instinct, a freedom that has earned her the admiration of audiences, the respect of critics and the complicity of her peers — a triple recognition achieved only on rare occasions.
