Cesk Freixas

In 2019 Freixas is presenting his seventh album: Festa Major.

The sixth of Freixas' albums, Proposta, was launched in 2017 when Freixas became a father.

Since June 2016, Freixas has also appeared regularly in Catalunya Ràdio and is very active online.

Protesta, the fifth album appeared in May 2014: under two formats: a CD with unedited material and also a DVD of the concert marking a decade of performances. The concert had taken place just after the death of Freixas' father.

In November 2013, Freixas published his first book: Paraules per a Gaeta (Words for Gaeta), thanks to the Publishing Cooperative Tigre de Paper.

The fourth album, Tocats pel foc (Touched by the fire) (Temps Record) appeared in 2012. It features a more live-like sound, with a significant presence of Acoustic guitars. Freixas described it as a homage to Manuel de Pedrolo.

In the elections to the Catalan Parliament Freixas has held symbolic responsibilities under the candidacy of CUP in 2012 and 2015. He has also contested or given active support to CUP in Local elections.

His political engagement might explain why his concerts have attracted political criticism and allegedly boycott by Spanish Nationalists and Conservatives. In 2009, the Spanish Conservative Party and a Spanish Nationalist Party unsuccessfully tried to have his concert in Figueres cancelled.

The next two albums have a slightly more modern sound and include some pop-rock songs with a touch of electronic music: El camí cap a nosaltres (The Path Towards Us) (RGB Suports, 2007), and La mà dels qui t'esperen (The Hand of those who await you) (Temps Record, 2009).

In 2006, Freixas uploaded a set of covers of international singer-songwriters including Silvio Rodríguez, Víctor Jara, Ovidi Montllor, Raimon, and Bob Marley, under the name of Les veus dels pobles lliures (The Voices of the Free Peoples).

Freixas' first album appeared a year later, in 2005: Set voltes rebel (Bullanga Records) (Seven Times a Rebel).

In 2005, together with members of the fairly well-known band called Inadaptats, Freixas created and performed a show to pay homage to the Valencian singer-songwriter Ovidi Montllor.

Since 2005, he has worked in the production and organization of the Trobada de Cantautors dels Països Catalans, a Gathering or Meeting of Singer-songwriters from all over the Catalan-speaking Countries. Artists such as Quico Pi de la Serra, Jaume Arnella, Miquel Gil, Albert Fibla, Feliu Ventura, and Pau Alabajos have taken part.

His first solo performance took place in January 2004 in Igualada. In April 2004, he performed alone for the second time and used the live recordings for the sampler.

Francesc Freixas i Morros (born 1984, Sant Pere de Riudebitlles, Alt Penedès, Catalonia, Spain) is a Spanish singer-songwriter. Freixas has released a sampler, six albums, and a series of covers of international singer-songwriters as a contribution to the revitalization of the Protest song in the Catalan-speaking countries.
