Social networks have been revolutionized with the video that Dani Martín has starred in. Whoever was the vocalist of El Canto del Loco appears in a taxi and warns that something will happen next October 6. There is talk on Twitter, on Instagram and also in the groups of those who grew up with the music of these people from Madrid in the background. In the networks a wide range of possibilities has been opened with which fans speculate, such as the announcement of their reunion, although there are those who echo that it’s about the launch of a new album. In an interview with Cadena Dial and Los40 he commented that he had recorded ten songs that are part of an album that “represents what El Canto del Loco was, his spirit, his attitude …”, he said.
The band lived a time of glory in the early 2000s, when he acted on numerous occasions on Aragonese stages. One of the first concerts that they offered in the Community was in the Parque Grande de Zaragoza, thanks to a ‘tour’ that promoted the advances of the internet at that time.
During that visit to the Aragonese capital, at the end of July, they offered an interview to HERALDO in which they assured that they were living “a dream”. “In less than a year we have gone from recording a demo in a room with hardly any light, to being on a tour of the main Spanish cities,” they said. In that news they also commented on the origin of the name: “Dani liked a song on Radio Futura called ‘El Canto del gallo’. We turned it around and stayed with the current name, which is fresh and sounds good, “explained Iván Ganchegui.

The performances in Aragon were happening and less than a year later, in March 2001, they took the stage of the Oasis room, where they also presented their album ‘A contracorriente’ a while later, in April 2002. In the Pillar parties of that year they put the rhythm to the Eduardo Ibarra square, there also Manu Tenorio or M-Clan performed, among others.
It was common for them to offer at least a couple of concerts a year, although in 2003 they toured several Aragonese towns. At the beginning of May 2003 they put the note to the Teruel night, in the bullring of the city, thanks to the Association of Merchants of Ensanche and La Fuenfresca who organized the event. That same summer they visited Zuera for the festivities of San Licer, their patron, and weeks later also in La Almunia de Doña Godina. They described Madrid as “one of the winning groups of the summer.”
In 2003 they were also at the festivities of Pilar de Fraga and Zaragoza, being a Interpeñas main course with David Civera from Teruel. Before 2004, they returned, this time to perform at the Sala Multipurpose of the Zaragoza Auditorium in a concert organized by Cadena 100.
Huesca in January 2004, Barbastro in September and Zaragoza in the Fiestas del Pilar also that year. During several Fiestas del Pilar de Zaragoza and San Lorenzo de Huesca they became a fixed date, so they repeated in 2005 as well. They were also an attractive musical proposal for the Festivities of the Angel 2006.

That year came one of the band’s most memorable concerts: at the Alcoraz stadium in Huesca. The interest was important, as revealed by the long lines that formed in the surroundings: “El Canto del Loco unleashed the phenomenon again in Huesca”.
The work ‘People’ brought Prince Felipe of Zaragoza to them in April 2008. In that appointment in the Aragonese capital they also stopped by the Oasis Hall to celebrate the great concert and visited the Basilica del Pilar: “We are not religious, but El Pilar is a special place, it has something,” they pointed out in an interview with HERALDO. They returned to Aragon in 2009 on a couple of occasions as well. Those were the last visits to Aragon as a group – Subsequently they have come with their new musical projects, most of them alone. El Canto del Loco disbanded in 2010.
