Carmesí at Mallorca Live Festival - Calviá

Carmen Molina, who performs as Carmesí, pushes pop toward indie without giving up a recognizable melody; her songs push the intimate toward the dance floor. At Mallorca Live Festival she will bring Tiro al Plato, a record that turns nostalgia toward rhythms that invite movement and reflection.

Tiro al Plato (2025) marks a turning point in Carmesí’s project: it retains the pop sensitivity of her early records but explores a more indie and at times experimental territory, with electric guitars underpinning personal songs and lyrics that seek an answer rather than a formula.

The production, credited alongside Bela Transa, Pepe Ludeña, Mario Vigara, Raúl de Lara and Guille Mostaza, drives the arrangements toward layers that alternate tension and release; it’s not saccharine pop, but a collection of pieces where emotional urgency coexists with catchy hooks.

Live, expect a setlist that navigates between the urban pulse of Refugio and the grittier, more guitar-driven edge of Tiro al Plato: songs meant to be felt firsthand but with rhythmic outlines that support the audience’s movement.

Carmesí’s presence on the Mallorca Live Festival bill also adds an interesting contrast in Calvià: her songs bring a personal gaze to a lineup that often mixes big names, serving as a stop where pop introspection becomes collective without losing the honesty of the songwriting.

To compare this gig with other dates and styles, it is worth taking a look at concerts in Mallorca.
