This young band from L'Eliana (Valencia) formed at the beginning of 1995, was born as a need to express the passion for pop-music that its members posses. Short time after the formation of La Habitación Roja they recorded their first demo-tape called "Play Pop, Vol. 1" and started touring throughout the Comunidad de Valencia calling the attention of critics and audience. That very same year they took part in the "Circuit Rock 100" Contest (sponsored by the important radio Station Cadena 100 & the government of Valencia) and turned out to be the winners among more than 300 bands. The award: the recording of a promotional CD which contained two songs.
During 1996 they continued their progress, based on the daily work. Their Pop music, defined as vital and emotional, based on at-first-hearing simple structures, has its strong point in the talent of Jorge Martí for writing songs. At the beginning of 1997 they recorded a new demo-tape in the Zero Studio in Valencia and sent it to the indie-label Grabaciones en el Mar. The boss of the label got immediately enraptured with the band and six of those eight songs were included in their first E.P., called "Popanrol" (May 97). In order to make the E.P. known to the public, they went on a tour of the biggest cities of Spain. After touring they continued circuiting throughout smaller towns and festivals. In October La Habitación Roja took part in The Ballantines Urban High Festival sharing the stage with bands such as Prodigy, Skunk Anansie and The Seahorses. That very same autumn they went again on a tour called "Instereo tour" together with Cecilia Ann, a band from Granada. In December 1998 they recorded their first album ("LHR"), once again in the Zero Studio in Valencia, but this time the concept and the ideas were much more clear. The result was brilliant!. Its amazing high-quality Pop production shows an unusual musical maturity. This summer they will be playing on the main stage in The Benicassim International Festival. |
