A blues-rock power trio

Big Yuyu have been around since 2006. A three-piece blues-rock power trio, there are few frills to Big Yuyu. Much of their sound is true to that which first really broke out in the 1960s thanks to the likes of Eric Clapton and John Mayall, and they have been paying their dues over the years, playing clubs and festivals on the island and mainland as well as in the UK, Germany and the Netherlands.

Their fifth studio work, ‘Down South City’, has recently been released. For this, the band had the production help of guitarist Isaiah Mitchell, who is a current member of the American rock band The Black Crowes. Many of their latest songs were inspired by their time on the road, and they do mark a development in terms of sound and composition. They are Jordi Alvarez (guitar and vocals), Juan Amaro (bass), and Esteve Huguet (drums).
