Buhos
# Buhos

Buhos is a rock group from Calafell in the comarca of Baix Penedès in Catalonia, Spain which was founded in 2005.

## History

### Early period (2007–2013)

After its founding in 2007, their first demo Rebelión was published on the street. The group gained popularity after a series of songs about FC Barcelona which they recorded for radio stations Ona FM and RAC 1. They also published satirical songs about current events for TV programs on Catalan TV station TV3. During this time, the band devoted a large part of its repertoire to covers, along with some original songs of their own.

Búhos musically celebrated soccer titles won by FC Barcelona, accompanied by Pep Guardiola in Plaça de Catalunya and in Barcelona's Arc de Triomf. During the first years of their career, the songs that could be heard at Búhos concerts were covers from other groups along with some original material, including their Niño de los 80 ("Child of the 80s", with Gerard Quintana), Messi  (the first song among many dedicated to the Argentinian soccer star), Birres i més Birres Estoy Quemao, Botelló and Fiesta Mayor.

The Buhos made a compilation album in 2010 from all the demo tapes they recorded in their early period, which they called Gratis Hits.

### Later period (2014–present)

In 2014, their later period began with a new line-up, and the release of their album Natura salvatge ("Wilderness") consisting of all original songs, which would become a hallmark of this period. With the release of this album, they began touring venues such as Clownia, Acampada Jove, or the annual La Mercè festival.

In March 2016, the album Lluna plena ("Full Moon") went on sale and consolidated their position as one of the leading Catalan music groups. They performed it at Clownia on Saint John's Eve and after a series of summer concerts, received Ràdio 4's Catalan Album of the Year Award and the 2016 Enderrock Award for best video for their Barcelona s'il·lumina ("Barcelona lights up"). In December of that year, they performed the TV3 Christmas song of the year, entitled Campanes de benvinguda ("Welcome Bells").

In 2018, the Buhos released La gran vida ("Living It Up"), the third album of their latter period. The album has more of a rock style, and more demanding lyrics, as in La trama ("The Plot") or La última colonia ("The Last Colony"). Weeks after the album was released they sold out the Razzmatazz in Barcelona, and the lead track of the album, "Volcans", became the 2018 song of the year by audience vote of the Enderrock audience.

In 2019 the group had its best tour ever, performing at all the top venues of the Catalan countries, including at least 70 concerts where they were headliners on top programs of Catalan music. In April 2019, the previously unpublished song "Connectats" came out.
