About José Antonio Labordeta
Although celebrated as a poet, novelist, and congressman, José Antonio Labordeta attracted the most attention as a Spanish folksinger, with more than 20 albums to his name. An old-school Republican who grew up in Aragón, Labordeta strongly opposed Francisco Franco's dictatorship and used his music as a means of expressing resistance with the sort of political views that would have been censored in print form. He began releasing albums in 1968, bringing his poems to life with an acoustic guitar and a melancholic voice. His concerts often felt more like protest meetings than traditional performances, and by 2000, he'd gathered enough political momentum to earn a spot in congress. Labordeta left office in 2008 and succumbed to prostate cancer two years later.
