History

Doctor Prats was created in 2015, with the intent to be solely an online band.[1][2] The same year, they released their first album, Patates amb peix (Potatoes with fish). On Saturday, April 11, they performed their first concert in the Faktoria d'Arts in Terrassa, in collaboration with various local artists.[3]

In April 2016, just a year after the first album was released, a second single, called Aham Sigah, was released. They performed the new work at the Bikini Room in Barcelona.[4] Thereafter, they toured Catalonia, performing at venues such as Clownia,[5] the Acampada Jove, or the Barcelona annual festival La Mercè.

They began performing abroad in 2017, with concerts in France, Hungary,[6] and Japan. They continued performing on tour in Catalonia, filling venues such as the Canet Rock Festival, the Acampada Jove, or the BioRitme Festival, among many others. On October 4, the two-year tour came to a close with a concert in the Apollo Room (Barcelona), but the political events surrounding the 2017 Catalan independence referendum at the time caused it to be canceled. The tour ended October 30 at the Sant Narcís fairs in Girona.

gollark: Talking about where to get them might be, or at least might cause them to complain.
gollark: Based on advanced "ctrl+F" technology, there's nothing specifically about drugs or whatever (would be weird if there was) but just "no doing illegal things". *Talking* about drugs is not illegal.
gollark: There's a specific no-explosives rule, there isn't a specific no-talking-about-drugs one (though I Imagine Discord TOS would forbid some related stuff).
gollark: The barriers to having an alternative are probably more financial and legal than technical, inasmuch as video hosting is mostly a solved technical issue by now but actually getting advertisers and such isn't.
gollark: Squirrels can bark?!
