Oriolano group Varry Brava is a trio formed by Óscar Ferrer, Aaron Sáez and Vicente Illescas. They recently released a new single that showcases a danceable techno vibe paired with compelling video clips filmed in diverse locations around the world. The group highlights Vega Baja as a place that has shaped their sound and style. They point to the parking lot of the Metro Dance Club in Bigastro and a venue called Artichoke as notable spaces in their growth. From the Oriola region of Correntías, the landscape of Vega Baja, with its mountains and trees, also permeates the visuals and mood of the project.
This track serves as a preview of a forthcoming album expected in 2024. It signals Varry Brava’s continued ascent as one of Spain’s standout groups, building on five completed albums and hundreds of performances. The band has also been recognized for its role in Benidorm Fest, where they contributed to the event’s vibrant palette and reach. The single pays homage to a famed Italian icon, signaling a nod to a diva who enjoyed significant success both in Spain and Italy.
The title track, Place to Dance, embodies a homage to Vega Baja del Segura. On the group’s site, it is described as a landscape that blends desert and sensuality with vegetal and metallic textures. It evokes the energy of tough, Wild West characters and the dynamic worlds of dance and techno clubs that rival the most intense venues in London or Berlin. Varry Brava nests technology and nature, laboratory precision and organic growth, all while keeping a core love for music and the local roots that fuel their sound. The band has always delivered a sense of magic and musical atmosphere that invites listeners to feel the place as much as the music.
The single was recorded in the late days of summer 2023, with sessions spanning Madrid and Sabadell. The project nods to the group’s roots, leaning into technical explorations while keeping a strong techno and electronic backbone. Tato Latorre, who produced the band’s first album, helped sharpen the club-ready edges of this track. The lyrics reference Future Radio, a favorite band of Varry Brava, and express gratitude for the people who helped shape the group’s path, noting that those influences left a lasting mark on their journey.
Varry Brava is set to return throughout 2024 with renewed live performances across the region. Audiences can expect the Place to Dance live show to travel with them, featuring some of the band’s most beloved hits such as Rotation, Ghosts, Beach, Route of Love, and a new version of Raffaella. The combination of high-energy electronic textures and a strong sense of regional identity continues to define Varry Brava as a powerful force in the Spanish music scene.
