Duo formed by Jordi Batiste (cult artist who played in the legendary catalan psych/proto prog band Máquina! and Grup De Folk, among others) and Ia Clúa (ex-member of the mega obscure catalan proto prog band Estratagema). Their discography consists in two studio LP's (plus a couple of live ones), albeit only the first of them is the most memorable of the two: it is an eclectic cult album, highly praised even by foreign music lovers. The second one, "Chichonera's Cat", lacks both the progressive elements as well as that mystic aura that makes "Un Gran Día" a cult work.
