Luego de 8 años de trayectoria, Somvazio se despidio de su audiencia en un ultimo evento el pasado Sabado 8 de octubre en JDs Cafe Teatro. Su pagina oficial en FB nos deja la siguiente nota.

“Gracias a los que se disfrutaron nuestro ultimo evento con nosotros, fue uno super especial de mucha emoción de aquí pa ya’ y de allá pa ca’. Gracias a todos los que nos apoyaron desde un principio, hasta un final. (AtrumOrbis, Habish, Wendel por su ayuda en sonido (afuera o studio), Icaro Azul, Logo Beat, Carlos Jimenez (por tirarse encima este ultimo gig), nuestra familia, Jorge Castro (por su eterna ayuda) y a todos ustedes por hacer que nuestra musica tenga sentido.

“Nada es casualidad” | Somvazio | 2003-2011 | Gracias.”

Habiendo tenido la oportunidad de compartir con la banda en varios eventos dentro y fuera de la tarima quiero cerrar compartiendo una serie de imagenes que sirven de capsula para aquellos Adictos al tiempo que han vivido siguiendo la gota.

Exito y Hasta Luego, Somvazio!

It was the night of Nov 11, Veteran’s day; A day to remember which just got a new meaning for the fans of The Killers as they brought a little bit of their Vegas style and flair for the first time to Puerto Rico with an over the top production that helped stamp in permanent memory one of the best spectacles and Rock concerts the island has seen so far.

The night started quite early with a local band that won a Coors Light online contest to open for The Killers. Polbo took the stage around 9:30 p.m. and played for about 30-45 min. They pleased the audience with their quirky alternative style very much in tune with the likes of Weezer but with a Latin influence. Two songs stood out from their set as rare gems, one was “Negra,” and other was “Te quiero Mucho” a track that they are currently promoting a video for.

When the lights of the coliseum dimmed, a huge wall of virtual speakers appeared in the background LED’s thumping the driving beat of “Human” as Brandon Flowers, David Keuning, Mark Stoermer and Ronnie Vannucci took the stage to kick start the concert. The show felt like a roller coaster, reaching peaks with old favorites like “Somebody Told Me” from their first album Hot Fuss. To me, a personal favorite was The Killers cover of Joy Division‘s “Shadowplay” halfway through the set. You could really feel the intensity of the song as they transformed it with a solid driver beat.

By the end of the show, the band performed a crowd favorite “Mr. Brightside” taking the audience to another level. The show ended with Three encores including “A Dustland Fairytale” then a sweet version of Elvis Presley’s “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” immediately followed by “Jenny Was A Friend Of Mine” and finished off with “When You Were Young.”

Changing the tempo here just came back from San Juan after covering The Killers concert at Coliseo de Pueto Rico for Spinearth.tv (more on that soon). But before getting to my hometown Aguadilla, Jose David Perez told me that he had a gig that night something different , something lounger, and more relax. So i said “Cool… I’ll be there.” It was the birthday celebration of David’s girlfriend Jeh and the tiny ensemble composed of Amed Irizarry, Antonio Caraballo,Ariel Robles and José David himself fired up the small club on Piñero Ave. The music was self explanatory cool grooves, hot jazz licks all put together in a very modern fashion. Enjoy

Somewhere in the town of Aguada, Puerto Rico strange sounds are rumbling. Can you hear it! It’s not just a beat it’s Logobeat! Hung out with them last night while they were filming their promo video directed by multi-talented artist Mikey Figueroa (Somvazio_guitar). I couldn’t resist the opportunity to grab the camera to take some shots. Specially when they borrowed me a fish eye lens from the equipment they were using to film. Cool stuff! I’ve never shot with that kind of lens before. It was surprising to me the fact that when I was developing the photos all I was thinking was, “Damn! I think I nailed that 90′s grunge look. You can bet I’ll definitely will put one of these babies on my Christmas list.

I’ve never seen such a beautiful location. It was great to go outdoors and find an excuse to shoot. Great hike and awesome group. Our host Fotos Gallo from Cabo Rojo and their staff did an excellent job finding the location and keeping everybody safe in the outdoors. Sad thing was that i missed the sunrise guess I’m not a morning person nevertheless hope we can do this again guys it was lots of fun.
