Biography

Blue Coconut's first steps can be found at the Sagrada Família neighbourhood in Barcelona around 2002 when three childhood friends came together with one goal: having fun while playing their instruments. In mid-2003, the trio became a four-piece when Frik, a schoolmate and long-time friend of Seo and Sete joined the band. This was a period of evolution for the band and during this time Puy and Seo came up with the band's current name after a crazy brainstorming session.

On July 2004, contact was established with a drummer that had posted some ads. A week later, Adrià was auditioned and officially became Blue Coconut's drummer. In late March 2005, Esther joined the band after a brief audition. A month after finding its voice, Blue Coconut made its first appearance as a fully established band in front of the "Sagrada Familia". Blue Coconut played about twenty gigs and started to record their first demo. In August 2007, Esther left the band and therefore the recording of the demo remained in standby and the band focused on finding a new singer. On late 2007 Erik contacted the band and after an audition, which included two shows in March and April, he became Blue Coconut's new voice.

In October 2008 Blue Coconut has released their first demo entitled "end at 953" which contains 5 songs. Lolo Guerrero was the sound engineer who recorded all the songs except Cage of Sands, recorded by Frederic Fernández (aka Frik), guitar of the band. The artwork was done by Oscar Arnal and the photography by Alba Puy.
