Spain Live at the MPS Studio \u2013 Concert with Live Recording<\/strong><\/p>\n

A cult American alternative rock band visits the historic MPS Studio: Spain, led by singer and bassist Josh Haden, plays live in front of an audience\u2014and the recording is rolling.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Founded in Los Angeles in 1993, Spain<\/strong> has developed a distinctive sound that blends melancholic rock, blues, and jazz. At its core is Josh Haden<\/strong>, son of the jazz legend Charlie Haden<\/strong>. His calm, distinctive voice, minimalist arrangements, and the unique tension between melody and silence continue to shape the band's music to this day.<\/p>\n

With her debut album\u00a0The Blue Moods of Spain<\/em>\u00a0(1995) brought Spain international attention. The British music magazine\u00a0Melody Maker<\/em>\u00a0named the single \u201eDreaming of Love\u201c \u201eSingle of the Week\u201c and wrote enthusiastically: \u201eWho would dare to do something like this? This record is my bible.\u201c The\u00a0Los Angeles Weekly<\/em>\u00a0described the sound as a mix of West Coast jazz, '60s soul, blues, and the Velvet Underground.<\/p>\n

The song \u201eSpiritual\u201c became particularly well-known; it was later covered by, among others, Johnny Cash<\/strong> as well as from Pat Metheny<\/strong> and Charlie Haden<\/strong> was interpreted. The music by Spain<\/strong> relies on restraint rather than grand gestures: slow grooves, precise arrangements, and songs that make an impact without relying on volume. The\u00a0New York Times<\/em>\u00a0described the debut as a carefully arranged, slowly flowing universe in which the streets are made of red velvet and the fog is as thick as cigarette smoke.<\/p>\n

After a break, he returned Josh Haden<\/strong> with Spain<\/strong> back on stage and in the studio. Albums like\u00a0The Soul of Spain<\/em>\u00a0(2012),\u00a0Sargent Place<\/em>\u00a0(2014) and\u00a0Carolina<\/em>\u00a0(2016) continue to develop their signature sound: darkly shimmering, unhurried, and full of emotional depth.<\/p>\n

At the MPS Studio, this music is presented in a special setting.<\/strong>\u00a0The historic studio, a designated landmark, was founded by SABA in 1962 and is closely tied to the history of jazz. Here, Spain\u2019s distinctive soundscape meets a place where music history is not only preserved but also continues to be written. The concert will take place in front of a live audience and will be recorded live\u2014a special opportunity to experience the band up close and to be part of a recording that will endure long after the evening is over.<\/p>\n
