  "account": "Kiko Veneno, a 74-year-old musician from Figueres, Girona, is preparing for a concert at the Náutico de San Vicente. As he plays his guitar and sings 'I'm Sleeping', a Beatles song, his voice blends Andalusian and Barcelona street styles. Veneno had stated the night before, during a dinner with artist Miquel Barceló, that musicians are \"anarquistas subterráneos\" and that their art aims to connect with ordinary people and bring positivity through songs. The concert is about to start at the beach of La Barrosa.",
  "summary": "We accompany the author of 'Volando voy', 'Lobo López' and 'Joselito' during a weeks-long journey of meetings, talks, reflections and lived moments. After half a century of career, he remains as curious and rebellious as in the seventies and releases a new album faithful to the \"spirit of wandering musicians\", ready to give spark to understand reality.",
