Asteartea by Bea Asurmendi
[ENG]
"Asteartea" ("Tuesday" in Basque) was, for years, a refuge and a source of inspiration. A safe space, full of light, where words flowed without judgment. Born from Bea's experience in a Women's Circle and inspired by the transformative power of sisterhood, this album emerges from honest conversations among she-wolves, from the courage to feel and share.
Sung in Basque, Spanish, and English, Bea’s unmistakable voice—filled with sensitivity and sincerity—guides us through landscapes of self-discovery, grief, forgiveness, self-love, and the importance of mental health awareness, within a sonic universe where contemporary jazz blends seamlessly with Iberian folk.
May these songs be an embrace of vulnerability, an invitation to introspection, and a celebration of emotional freedom. May they remind us that we are not alone—and help us look within with kindness, let go of what weighs us down, and move forward with greater ease.

"Asteartea" (“martes” en euskera) fue, durante años, un refugio y una fuente de inspiración. Un espacio seguro, lleno de luz, donde las palabras fluían sin juicios. Nacido de su experiencia en un Círculo de Mujeres e inspirado por el poder transformador de la sororidad, este disco nace de conversaciones sinceras entre lobas, de la valentía de sentir y compartir.
Cantado en euskera, castellano e inglés, la inconfundible voz de Bea—llena de sensibilidad y sinceridad—nos guía a través de paisajes de autodescubrimiento, duelo, perdón, amor propio y la importancia de la salud mental, en un universo sonoro donde el jazz contemporáneo se fusiona con el folk ibérico.
Que estas canciones sean un abrazo a la vulnerabilidad, una invitación a la introspección y un canto a la liberación de las emociones. Que nos recuerden que no estamos solas y nos ayuden a mirar hacia dentro con cariño, a soltar lo que pesa y a caminar con más ligereza.
