Yeah San Miguel<\/a> were to have an alternative rock anthem, this would be the song The Blind Worm<\/a> titled as our city that speaks of the longing to return to a beautiful love that although now lost, the memory of happy times will always remain like when they were in "San Miguel."\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is no coincidence that our home is the title of this great song, because in addition to being a space with a living pulse, it is also the chosen abode of the talented musician Germ\u00e1n Arroyo who chose us as his lair in the world years ago as a space in which he can appreciate the silences in order to continue creating his music. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being part of a rock band means that for German<\/a> There will never be a day identical to the previous one, this absence of routine awakens in him a creative sensitivity that is transmitted in his music and that he balances with other activities such as his guitar workshop.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, despite being a cigar box guitarist, his love for strings is such that he decided to create a new offering for all those who love the instrument with a variety called \u201ccigar box guitar\u201d or cigarette box guitar in which the guitar box, as its name indicates, is made from a cigar box and the instrument has between 3-4 strings and its resonance is electronic unlike a ukulele. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creating these instruments represents a challenge for Germ\u00e1n because their forging requires high precision so that the strings can be tuned properly and the musicians can obtain the best sound from the beautiful instrument, as the band Fobia has already used. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The eye-catching guitars can be purchased through their social networks on IG where you can find them as @lailacbg<\/a> which undoubtedly gain popularity day by day and help Germ\u00e1n vent his immense creativity with something more tangible than music: an instrument.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Living in San Miguel does not represent any impediment for Germ\u00e1n to fulfill his commitments with La Gusana Ciega since every Monday they have a virtual meeting to catch up on what each of the members is doing at that moment and divide up the work. While Germ\u00e1n is more in charge of the art of the albums and the video clips, Lu is in charge of the audio and the masters, and Daniel keeps an eye on the bookings for his shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

And it is when they have shows that they meet in person to be able to rehearse rigorously and plan the way in which they are going to assemble the set and thus have a successful and satisfactory tour for their audience who respects them enormously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without a doubt, being in San Miguel is a creative impulse for Germ\u00e1n, as he assures that the population of American veterans who live here has taught him about the best schools of the blues and country genres, as well as the local scene that keeps him up to date on the world of jazz. According to Germ\u00e1n, the artistic culture that is breathed in our lands is such that very soon local musical projects will begin to emerge that will gain global notoriety.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
