📖 Two perspectives on intimate indie-pop

Cloe Riembau arrives fresh from winning the Sona 9 competition, capping a rapid three-year rise that saw her evolve from performing covers to writing her own songs. Hailing from La Bisbal d’Empordà, she presents her debut album, «Equilibris sense xarxa», produced by Aleix Bou alongside Jaume Pla (Mazoni), showcasing a sound linked to international indie-pop.

Sharing the bill is MALVA, the solo project of Carolina Viana, an artist from Viana do Castelo based in Porto who previously co-founded the duo redoma. Following the critical acclaim of her debut album «vens ou ficas» (2023), she presents «poros» (2025), a collaborative record that deepens her delicate, emotional world.

🎶 AFERS and support for European newcomers

The AFERS series pairs local and European performers at La CINC inside Sala Apolo, offering a stripped-back, personal concert experience. MALVA's performance is backed by Liveurope, a pan-European initiative co-funded by the European Union's Creative Europe programme to champion emerging artists across Europe.

✨ An evening to discover two of the most compelling rising voices in contemporary music.
