The Puzzles is a band of Santander borned in 2006 and
formed by Pablo Fernandez, Iván González, Fernando
Bolado and Iñigo Bregel. The band-style moves between
pop, rock and folk, all wrapped in harmonies of 3 or 4 voices
using the same style of the great vocal bands of the 50ths.

The staging of the band is one of the most particular points of their show. All of the
musicians playing downstage and the drummer standing and playing with maracas a
Ludwig from the 50ths.
On the other hand, the dynamic changes of instruments by each of its members
makes their concerts an espectacular experience, changing from acoustic sets dressed
by melodic and harp bass, to classic combo sets of guitars and Rhodes keyboard.
The band was formed in 2006, when they decided to move to England to live together
and build a serious band. The first stop was Reading (Berkshire), where the local
council gave the band the chance to play in city activities, besides playing in different
clubs in the city such as Global Cafe or
Oakford Social Club.
In September 2007, after signing a contract
in two clubs of the city, the Bakery Inn and
Oakfiel Inn, they moved to Liverpool where
they played in important clubs of the city
such as The Cavern Club or Zanzibar. In
2009, they returned to Spain and after
publishing their first E.P., self-produced,
titled “Miss Mister”, the band won the
contest of young musicians “Juvecant of
Cantabria” in the Pop/Rock category.
In 2011 they released their second E.P. titled “A Sunny Day Out”, also self-produced
and in september 2013 the band released their first L.P. “On The Backs Of.” They won
the third place in the XXVI edition of the competition Pop -Rock Villa de Bilbao and
the FNAC award for best band in the same competition.
At the same time, artists of the independent national and international scene, such
as Luis Auseron (Radio Futura) and Mica P.Hinson have shown great interest in the
work of the band, collaborating in their latest musical works.
They Recently won the award for the best group of Cantabria in the V. Pop-Rock Villa
de Laredo Awards and currently the band is finishing the recording of their second
album.

“Pocos discos nos llegarán
de las islas británicas tan
bien facturados. Y es que
The Puzzles lo tienen todo
para triunfar: buenas
canciones, buenos músicos
y un buen productor.
Cuidan los ritmos y en
todos los temas potencia el
protagonismo de unas
armonías vocales
excelentes.”
Eduardo Izquierdo - Efeeme
"Si una primera escucha
remite indefectiblemente a
las riberas del Mersey, es
en posteriores cuando
diriges la mirada al folkpop de la costa oeste
americana, a las épocas en
que las décadas de los 50 y
60 comenzaban a cambiar
su nombre, a las armonías
a varias voces de los chicos
playeros."

BOOKING OPEN
“Lo que une a este grupo
cántabro es la pasión por la
música. Por eso, crearon
hace ya unos años The
Puzzles, grupo ganador de
varios certámenes de la
región. Aunque muchos se
empeñan en colgarles el
cartel de los Beatles ellos
defienden una identidad
propia, basada en un
sonido pop americano más
que británico”
