Valentina Cooke premiered an unreleased song by Indio Solari, “Serenade of the Smoker Saints”, which also provided production and musical direction
“It is a song that has been waiting for several years for an interpretation that lives up to what I believe this song deserves, because it is one of my best songs of all time,” wrote the Indio Solari on his Instagram account. “Finally, Valen appeared, who is a fabulous performer and has a very rich voice and has made a very good version, better than the one I had, made by me. “Enjoy it!” concludes the singer.
There is probably no greater impulse in the world. The song he performed Valentina Cookemember of the rising group Scorpioes “Serenade of the Smoking Saints” an introspective ballad in which the singer shines accompanied by Gasapar Banegasguitarist of The Air Conditioning Fundamentalists and leader of The Moneyon guitar, bass and keyboards and Ramiro Naguil (Gaspar’s partner in both projects) on drums. The composition, poetry, arrangements and musical production were in charge, of course, of the Indio Solari. Mastering did it Neil Pickles in London. And the clip was made by Edgardo Kevorkian, official photographer of the former Los Redondos singer.
It is not the first praise that El Indio has given the singer. In mid-2022, Scorpio released his first EP, The sealproduced by Gaspar Banegas. In just four songs, the work managed to capture the group’s identity, from blues to funk, from grunge to rhythm & blues, without abandoning its rock imprint. “Gaspar was key. He says that working with Scorpio is easy because we come in with our homework done and we record quickly and do everything quickly. I have known him for many years and it is beautiful to see how he enjoys working with us,” Cooke had told ROLLING STONE. At that moment he was celebrating the first public praise of Indio Solari, who on his networks and on a photo of them had written: “This moment is characterized by the fact that the best performances are played by women”. Pavada of praise.
But, furthermore, the rich country is anxious, because Pedro Rosemblat announced for this Sunday, at 8 p.m., an exclusive interview with El Indio on Gelatina’s YouTube channel.
