« Songs that breathe serenity, a true philosophy of life,
a coaching with autobiographical undertones.
Nothing is ever over, never doubt :
messages that shoot like arrows. »
Francis Larrieu — La République des Pyrénées
Born in Valencia (France), Juan Valiente was only fourteen when he was swept up by the Latin wave of the 70s.
His music carries the full richness of a heritage built on tradition, folklore and modernity.
Guitarist, singer and songwriter, he reaches the hearts of his audiences with a voice both gentle and powerful, accompanied by a harmonious and delicate guitar style.
Through fourteen songs in Spanish, Juan Valiente weaves voice and guitar to bring warm melodies to life, shaped by Latin influences and universal stories where love, freedom and emotion intertwine. Beside him, Mathias Lujan on percussion lays down a lively rhythm that gives each piece its depth. The dialogue between the two musicians is built on a deep musical bond, with sounds ranging from acoustic gentleness to more festive bursts. The repertoire crosses Hispanic cultures and invites the audience to listen, travel inward or simply dance.
