Tetris Kelly:
Morat is about to hit the road and Leila Cobo sat down with the boys to talk about touring.
Leila Cobo:
This sound is going to be played in stadiums, starting this summer. Stadiums. In other words, we were talking about 15,000 people, now we are going to be talking about 45,000 people. What does that feel like? Is it a mixture of excitement, that we’re ready, I can’t wait to stand up there? What’s going on?
Morat:
Especially the one in Bogota, it’s particularly – like it hits you differently partly because I think there is one thing that happens in Colombia and that is that I feel that we are a country where we have become so accustomed to local consumption and genuinely value talent from our country. And usually what ends up happening is those who hit outside end up bouncing back in the country. It is a particular thing, but
Leila Cobo:
With that being said, you are signed with Universal in Spain.
Morat:
Aha, exactly. And people have a tendency to see that. And I feel like in the last I would say in the last ten years it feels like things are starting to change and it feels different. And being able to return home and play at the El Campín stadium, which is the stadium of the city we grew up in, it’s a very strong thing to think about playing there and then sleep in one’s house, then go out partying with friends, that is a very strange thing.
