About Viva Suecia
Viva Suecia formed in Murcia and grew from the city's local guitar-band scene into one of the better-drawing acts in Spanish independent music. The name translates as "Long live Sweden", though the band's songs are firmly rooted in Spain and sung entirely in Spanish.
Their records lean on layered electric guitars, steady driving rhythms and lyrics about doubt, loss and holding on, with Rafa Val's voice set high in the mix. Albums such as Otros principios fundamentales, La fuerza mayor and El milagro moved them from club venues to large concert halls, and their crowds tend to sing the choruses back at full volume.
