“The Lost Adventures” is the name of the third album by the composer and guitarist Fabricio Tocco, where he will pay tribute to Alejandra Pizarnik in the framework of the 50 anniversary of his death.

The name of the plate is inspired by the homonymous book by Pizarnik, published in 1958. In the, the artist will investigate the deep link that unites him to literature, as a teacher and writer, in a compositional process that goes from words to music.

Distributed by Club del Disco, The album will hit digital platforms on 28 October.

In its pages, Pizarnik tackles themes such as angels and blood, loneliness and night, childhood and death. Within this framework, Tocco explains that all those images “found a very strong echo in me in the isolation of the pandemic that translated into these songs”.

Recorded in Vancouver (Canada) and La Coruna (Spain), “The lost adventures” arrives under the executive production, arrangements and mixes by Fernando Ruiz.

Through your songs, the musician will explore various musical styles of our country such as vidala, the chacarera, the country milonga and the tango.

The folklore singer Gisela Baum is also part of the album, Fernando Ruiz in choirs, electric guitars, acoustic and creole, the pianist and violinist Ale Comes and the bandoneon Joaquín Benítez Kitegroski, as guests.

Tocco is an Argentine musician born in 1985 who moved to Europe as a young man, where he discovered Latin American music and literature, somewhat seeking to counteract the identity snatched by emigration and > another little by symbiosis with different generations of the diaspora, scattered around the outside.

In 2015 moved to Canada where he played in different parts of British Columbia as a solo artist and with his band West Coast Bossa. “Nooks from there” (2019), his first record, is a trip to different soundscapes of South America. From bossa nova to milongón, the little waltz and the chacarera, the album is a trip crossed by the melancholy and the bad weather of living outside.

His second production, “Gringuinho” (disco club, 2022), explore a bilingual childhood through root music rhythms, linked to carnival: from samba to zamba and from huayno to murga.
