SanIsidro

What Isidro Rubio loves most about making music is songwriting. After years in punk and rock’n’roll bands, he launched his solo project, SanIsidro. He borrowed an 8-track, recorded some intimate demos and the result was his 2020 debut LP via Slovenly Recordings.

In 2023, he signed with La Castanya and released “SAMBORI”, an LP of elegant mid-tempo songs crafted for unhurried listening. The record stands out for its rich instrumentation bringing warmth and personality to every track.

Rubio began playing his father’s bongos and learning guitar from his mother. By 14 he had formed his first punk band, later touring Europe, USA and Australia with garage outfits such as Wau y los Arrrghs!!!

“Lento aposta” is SanIsidro’s newest chapter, an LP to step away from the crowd to gain space, intimacy, and time. Once again free from any preconceived formula, it blends folk, psychedelia, and flamenco, with flavors traveling from the Mediterranean to the Caribbean, from the Sahel to Latin America.
