Las hermanas Llanos, juntas en un escenario una década después del final de Dover: “Yo no supe de la violación hasta unos años después. Para mí fue tremendo”
Amparo y Cristina presentan en un acto en Madrid el descarnado libro de esta última, ‘La noche cayó y ya nadie pudo salvarme’
In a grand piano-draped room at the Manual de Falla Palace in Madrid, belonging to the Spanish Federation of Musicians (SGAE), the Llanos sisters, founders of Dover, made their first public appearance in over a decade. A piano sitting in the corner was silent. Cristina, at 50 years old, a singer and guitarist from Madrid, hadn't sung publicly since Dover's final concert in Getafe, Madrid, in 2015.
She had silver, short hair and a constant smile as she sat beside her sister Amparo, 61 years old and a guitarist, a constant companion since their birth. Cristina lamented that she wouldn't have been able to sing in a group without her sister: "My guitar was my salvation, it guided me. It was the salvation of my bathtub. You've always been there.
I bathed in you. You're special, very intelligent. Amparo is my grand doorway on the Titanic that only I inhabit."
