The Spanish band Sidecars presented their latest album 'Everest' at a concert for EL PAÍS readers in Madrid.
Sidecars, a prominent Spanish music band, celebrated their 20th anniversary and presented their latest album 'Everest' at the Teatros Luchana in Madrid. The event attracted over 300 readers of the newspaper EL PAÍS and featured both an interview and live performance from the trio. This concert was part of the EL PAÍS reader engagement initiative that aims to strengthen connections with subscribers.
The band, consisting of Juancho, Gerbass, and Ruly, performed their song "Un granito de arena" with the accompaniment of keyboardist Sergio Valdehita.
