Oskorri is a boundless sea. Founded in 1972, over the 28 years of their existence they have been the brilliant crucible where, year after year, record after record, marvellous music has been blended which has gently reached into every corner of our land. On the one hand, owing to their years of experience, and on the other, the passion and intensity which they have devoted to their work, they have achieved a positive and progressive musical viewpoint within the group, intuitively creating wonderful songs, powerful melodies, attractive worlds, frothy fantasies, a strong popular identity and a cheerful outlook, and they have done it over and over again, both live and on record, elegantly, delicately and with a fine humanity, to share it with a faithful public.
