This year we’re delighted to welcome to the Festival (for the first time) Welsh singer and guitarist, John Lewis, who will play on Saturday 8th November. Presenting his new album, ‘Sanity’, he’ll be accompanied on stage by The Sun Rockets, Spanish group which is back this year after their extremely successful performance at last year’s festival and which can brag about being one of the most respected in the national Rockabilly scene.

The opening night of the Festival (7th November) will feature the music of Junior Marvel (Frank Márquez), a Dutch guitarist who will be joined on stage by local Málaga band, The Wildshakers.

This year, as a added bonus to the concerts in the Moonlight Bar, the terrace of our Oasis Restaurant will also host live music and DJ sessions on Saturday 8th November from 4:00pm.
