‘Cuento de hadas en Madrid’, a carol dedicated to the Spanish capital, makes its debut

This year, the magic of Christmas arrives with a very special song that reinterprets a classic to give it a Madrid touch. Iván Ferreiro, together with prominent artists such as Leiva, Santi Balmes and Vega, has released the Christmas carol “Cuento de Hadas en Madrid”, a version of The Pogues’ iconic “Fairytale of New York”. This adaptation not only pays tribute to the Spanish capital, but also celebrates the connection between traditional and modern music.

In this version, Ferreiro and his collaborators have transformed the story to set it in the heart of Madrid, narrating the experiences and emotions of those who find in the city a place full of magic during the Christmas season. The song captures the essence of the festivities with a blend of nostalgia, joy and hope, becoming a perfect anthem for this time of year.

Recorded at the emblematic Café Pavón, this Christmas carol brings together major names in Spanish music and traditional instrumental elements that give it a unique richness. With this new interpretation, “Cuento de Hadas en Madrid” promises to be an indispensable accompaniment for celebrating Christmas in the city and enjoying its festive spirit.
