    It is a lullaby (EAEA) that mothers sang to their babies to calm them down and make them sleep. The singer's grandmother sang it to her as a child. The setting is red ropes emulating the fringes of a manila shawl, a typical garment of the region.

    The song, the staging have many elements of Federico García Lorca’s poetry: red colour, the Moon, the song is a lullaby ( popular literary genre ), the mother, the child…

    La canción de Blanca Paloma es una obra de teatro, una performance hecha para ser representada y con la puesta en escena es como cobra todo el sentido, utilizando referencias simbólicas españolas (lorquianas) pero también universales. Es una invocación, una llamada, un canto a aquello que nos hace sentir seguros y a la vez fuertes, que nos hace entrar en un trance hipnótico. Un viaje de empoderamiento desde la raiz de un arbol que crece fuerte hacia la modernidad y nos da cobijo.
    Ella lo relaciona con su abuela, con aquello maternal que nos cuida y nos protege. Los flecos rojos que cuelgan y que ella ya explicó que le recordaban al mantón de su abuela, forman un círculo que es como un útero materno que nos alumbra y nos nutre. Ella atraviesa ese útero que es fecundado (así entiendo yo esas manos que la rodean y la sujetan durante unos segundos). Luego se hace el milagro de la vida.
    La luna es el símbolo de lo femenino, que engendra, nutre y hace crecer. Está presente cada noche menos cuando se apaga en luna nueva. Durante la actuación se repite con fuerza y rítmicamente el soniquete “ea, ea”, que es el arrullo que cantan las madres a los niños cuando tienen miedo, cuando lloran, para tranquilizarlos y darles fuerza. Nada malo va a ocurrir… Las bailarinas también imitan el movimiento de los brazos que acunan de manera espasmódica. Parece un vaivén de olas… Porque el mar también arrulla y se transforma con las fases de la luna y es el elemento de femenino por excelencia. La base que suena por debajo del canto telúrico y las alusiones al latido del corazón completan los elementos visuales y sonoros del conjunto.
    Esta canción es un canto a la vida y una obra de arte. Gane o no, no dejará a nadie indiferente y será difícil de olvidar.
    Blanca Paloma's song is a play, a performance made to be represented and with the staging it makes sense, using Spanish (Lorca) but also universal symbolic references. It is an invocation, a call, a song to what makes us feel safe and strong at the same time, which makes us enter a hypnotic trance.
    She relates it to her grandmother, to that maternal thing that takes care of us and protects us. The red strings that hang down and that she already explained reminded her of her grandmother's shawl, form a circle that is like a maternal womb that gives us light and nourishes us. She goes through that uterus that is fertilized (this is how I understand those hands that surround her and hold her for a few seconds). Then the miracle of life is done.
    The moon is the symbol of the feminine, which engenders, nourishes and makes it grow. It is present every night except when it goes out on a new moon. During the performance, the sound “ea, ea” is repeated loudly and rhythmically, which is the lullaby that mothers sing to children when they are afraid, when they cry, to reassure them and give them strength. Nothing bad is going to happen... The dancers also imitate the movement of the arms that they cradle spasmodically. It looks like a sway of waves... Because the sea also lulls and transforms with the phases of the moon and is the quintessential feminine element. The base that sounds below the telluric song and the allusions to the heartbeat complete the visual and sound elements of the set.
    This song is a song to celebrate life and a work of art. Win or not, it will not leave anyone indifferent and it will be difficult to forget.

    The song itself (music, singing, clapping) is a bulería, kind of a specific 'subgenere' of flamenco with a modern twist of an electronic beat.
    The topic and the lyrics come from the POV of a woman singing a lullaby, trying to put her crying baby to sleep ('Eaea' is a cooing sound in Spain)
    The performance and staging are the ones of a ritual, summoning her ancestors. Specially her late grandma, wich this song is inspired by and dedicated to, because she taught and used to sing flamenco and lullabies to her.
    The repetitive pattern of the beat, backing vocals and rythmic clapping are intended to be entrancing and hypnotizing for connecting with the energy of the experience. Her hand movements work as a praise and a calling to the above.
    The red threads are a reference to the fringes of a traditional 'mantón' (shawl) simbolizing protection, motherhood, in fact she said it could be seen sort of womb-shaped. Actually she worked as a costume and stage set designer, as she did here too.
    The white circle represents the moon, where, as the lyrics say, she wants to be buried in when she dies, so she will be able to watch over her child everynight but one ('newmoon')
    First she kneels looking up, later she kneels again looking downwards, always with a reaching hand.
    Then she shoots a flaming arrow and lights it on fire (red pulsing light, heartbeat, blood, death) Finally the priestess gets on the shrine to end the ritual in ecstasy.

    Los hilos interpretan a los del manton que llevan las flamencas. Aquí hay mucha raza y elegancia, el look interpreta, corazón y pureza. A pesar de que parece una invención con finalidades artísticas, su nombre es real: Blanca Paloma Ramos Baeza nació hace 33 años en Elche, hija de padre sevillano y madre alicantina. Antes de dedicarse a la música, estudió Bellas Artes en tres universidades diferentes, entre ellas la Universitat de Barcelona 💃 ❤️ 🇪🇸 🎧

    Based in BULERÍA, an style of FLAMENCO. The lyrics have to be, talk about with his grandfather and the universal poet Federico García Lorca y his poems "NANAS" ( is a way how mothers try to protect or sleep their babies seing or singing EA EA, EA, EA). As musician for me no matter how can finish this Work Teathrel Art. IS MAGIC. Instead of guitars and boxes sounds synthe. I hope this time don't see neighbors voting one to the other. That corrupt this Festival. In my opinion we have to open our minds more than the infinitive.
