The Jul Bolinaga Basket on the Stage

  • When: 27 June. Arrasate (Monterrón), at 21:30 Entry: Free. Organise: Jul Friends and City Hall of Mondragón

The arrasatearra Jul Bolinaga started playing in the music world from a very young age and in November last year it was imposed on a stage with a heart that followed. Therefore, friends, family members, musicians and fellow travellers have baptized the concert they have organized in their honor under the name of 'An Endless Tour'. Moreover, given that their musical legacy and their way of being are still alive, they have also created the JULHN-E27 enrollment, of the vehicle that will never stop.

Jule explained with music his committed trajectory and his passion for changing the world. Thus, it has a very long biography: In the late 1970s he founded with his brother Txerra and some friends the punk group Doble Cero, which later, due to some changes, was called RIP and, despite his short discography, had a great influence on the punk environment of Euskal Herria, the Spanish State and other countries. So much so that, being one of the most influential groups that has yet existed in the Basque Country and beyond this genre, it remains a reference from generation to generation. In addition, the crude words written by the group during the 1980s, unfortunately, are still very topical.

The RIP group was uneven in terms of the stage presence in the second millennium until, after the death of Karlos Mohammed Agirreurreta, the band was buried forever – beforehand died Bassist Eduardo Mancebo Portu in the late 1990s – but in all these RIP Jule pauses never stopped working. He participated, inter alia, in the following groups: Diputación Coral, Los Pitxones, Txapelpunk, Keys, The Kagas, The Meas, The Magnificent Seven, Karrocerías Betoño, Piztu Punk, Gipsy Voodoo Rednecks.

Three days after Arrasate's friends took the hell away, an emotional farewell event was celebrated to friend Jul, where a lot of people met. But encouraged by the blows and the messages of support received for his death in the town and outside of it, they decided to make more initiatives to remember the musician from Arrasate; thus emerged the Jul Lagunak initiative. And the first goal was to do a great concert in tribute to a person who, by his way of making music and his modest way of being, has left a mark on many young people of the past, the present and the future.

They have contacted the Town Hall of Arrasate and between the two have organised a special tribute concert on 27 June in the park Monterrón de Arrasate. In this special performance you will be able to see and hear a large sample of the songwriter Julen, as you could not collect everything in one concert. Among others, they will act RIP, The Potes, Karrocerias Betoño, Keys and Piztu Punk. And to do so, musicians from different generations who have counted on Jule’s presence as a travel companion will be placed on the stage.
