Guitar Virtuoso Manuel Urgiles Unleashes "Fuerza": A Powerful Anthem of Resilience and Resistance


Renowned guitarist and composer Manuel Urgiles is set to unveil his latest creation, "Fuerza", an emotionally charged and intense composition that serves as a rallying cry for resilience and resistance in the face of adversity. Blending the raw energy of heavy metal with the sophistication of jazz and the vibrant rhythms of Latin music, "Fuerza" represents a groundbreaking fusion that defies genre boundaries and delivers an exhilarating sonic experience.


The title, "Fuerza", translates to "strength," encapsulating the track’s central theme: reclaiming power from oppressors and summoning the inner resolve to face life’s challenges. In a world increasingly marked by struggle and uncertainty, "Fuerza" offers a beacon of empowerment, urging listeners to rise above and persevere.


Manuel Urgiles, a father of two and one of Maine's most promising contemporary instrumentalists, has crafted a diverse and dynamic career that shines through in "Fuerza". His journey from calm to chaos, from coast to coast, is reflected in every note, showcasing the depth of his musical expression. Urgiles’ blend of percussive passion, groove, and blistering guitar work in "Fuerza" is nothing short of mesmerizing, demonstrating his mastery in what he calls Progressive Latin Metal.


Fuerza is more than just a track; it’s a testament to Urgiles’ ability to convey profound emotion without words. His lyrical lines and lightning-fast fingers communicate volumes, offering listeners a deeply moving experience that transcends language. His most recent EP, UNDERNEATH, which was mixed and mastered by the esteemed Stacy Parrish (known for his work with Robert Plant, Brandi Carlile, and Elvis Costello), marked a significant milestone in Urgiles’ career. Fuerza builds on that momentum, solidifying his place as a powerful force in the world of instrumental music.


With Fuerza, Manuel Urgiles continues to push the boundaries of what instrumental music can achieve, proving that soul and meaning don’t necessarily require a singer. His innovative blend of genres and his ability to channel intense emotions through his guitar make him a standout artist in today’s music scene.
