The project 'La Juerga Flamenca 2026' has brought together the groups Cosita Wena and La Cuarta Cuerda in a digital music initiative. The proposal involves reinterpreting popular and current songs with a flamenquito style, through a series of releases combining music, audiovisual content, and digital strategy.
This project is conceived as a continuous experience, with a new track each week, accompanied by its own music video and a digital strategy to maintain audience engagement. The collaboration originated after contact from Sony Music, who passed the baton to the artists following Luis de Perikín's involvement the previous year. Members of La Cuarta Cuerda, Miguel Gallardo, Pablo López, and Jesús García, explain that the idea was conceived during a meeting in Córdoba with Cosita Wena.
Each group selected between 15 and 20 songs, choosing five each to avoid overlap. Luis Ignacio Alonso and Juan Fernández, vocalists of Cosita Wena, follow a similar method, picking current hits and adding a classic or two. They champion covers, aiming to bring their own style while respecting the original work and artist.
The artists describe their style as 'fresh flamenco,' avoiding the label 'flamenquito' to define their more commercial and rumba-influenced sound. They highlight the importance of the collaborating producers and musicians, ensuring quality and respect for the songs. At events like the Fair, they adapt their repertoire to include sevillanas, while for weddings, they opt for more romantic themes.
They believe 'La Juerga Flamenca' has boosted their visibility and allowed them to perform songs that the public has requested. They announce they are preparing their own album for after the summer and will continue releasing singles every two to three months, after having been immersed in the studio for the past three months.
They conclude that the key to standing out in today's global music scene is personality and consistent work, as luck often follows effort. They acknowledge that surpassing the impact of previous hits like 'Me hace daño verte' will be challenging, but point out that social media virality and the choice of influencers can be decisive factors.
The concept of success has shifted from record sales to social media virality and the ability to fill venues. They note that today's immediacy means songs have a shorter lifespan and are quickly forgotten, unlike the experience of enjoying a full album in the past.
