about

Al atardecer algunos animales se acercan hasta la caravana de los humanos. Junto a los carros, los niños ríen y los corazones se preparan para la gesta nocturna. Saben que hace falta mucha más poesía para salvar al mundo. Folk-rock gitano y milonga épica.

La música de Pilonius Orquesta hace pensar en una banda de circo gitano interpretando folk, ska y milonga. Al micrófono un poeta golpeado, de corazón roto. Trombones, violines, teclados vintage y un trío de rock electro-acústico, cruzan las vías desiertas y arrastran en caravana polvorienta. Ante sí desfilan historias de héroes campesinos, estrellas de la arena, poetas desafiando a la vorágine y corazones insomnes pretendiendo leer el amor en el cosmos.
Montevideo, Uruguay, 2018.

At dusk, some animals approach the caravan of humans. The children laugh and the hearts prepare themselves for the nocturnal feat. They know that much more poetry is needed to save the world. Gypsy folk-rock and epic milonga.

The music of Pilonius Orquesta suggests a gypsy circus band playing folk, ska and milonga. At the microphone a hurt poet, with a broken heart. Trombones, violins, vintage keyboards and a trio of electro-acoustic rock, cross the deserted tracks and drag in dusty caravan. Before him parades stories of peasant heroes, stars of the arena, poets defying the overfall and insomniac hearts pretending to read love in the cosmos.
Montevideo, Uruguay, 2018.
