Definir a nuestra siguiente invitada dentro del proyecto Eramus+ "STOP FENCES" no es una tarea fácil. Si han tenido la oportunidad de compartir un ratito con ella o escucharla cantar es todo un lujo.

Fabiola Socas es luz, es dulzura, es voz y es tradición. De su paso por el Lucas guarda recuerdos muy bonito y profesorado que son amigos en la actualidad. Acompañada de su perrita "Orlee" nos cuenta sus inicios en la música y se emociona al hablar de su padre del que tanto ha aprendido y con el que tanto ha compartido en cientos de escenarios.

¡Muchas gracias, Fabiola! Ha sido todo un honor y un placer contar contigo en este proyecto.

She was born in Icod de los Vinos (Tenerife) in 1977 and has developed her musical studies in the island Conservatorio of Music from Santa Cruz de Tenerife until getting the highest degree in Composition and Piano.

She started singind flok music (isas, folías,...) from a very young age and soon became a very recognizable voice among the other local flok singers (called "cantadores"), performing along the whole archipielago and mainland, Spain.
