Overview

I play a mix of Spanish music: rumbas (like Gipsy Kings), popular and original Latin pop songs, boleros/baladas and flamenco. I provide various setups:
- Duo: voice and flamenco guitar.
- Trio by adding in a percussionist for a fuller sound OR a flamenco dancer to perform live a few pieces.
- Quartet (voice, flamenco guitar, percussion and add a 4th instrument: bass or keys)
- Quintet (voice, flamenco guitar, percussion, keyboard + bass guitar)
- Sextet (voice, flamenco guitar, percussion, keyboard, bass guitar + flamenco dancer)
Our services are more fitting for cocktail hour or dinner service. It’s not dance party music.

What to expect

I am very lively and entertaining when I am on stage. I put on a show. I will sing the lyrics of the song as if they were mine (when they're covers), will dance to the music and entice the audience to join along.
Depending on what the client wants, I can sing with a guitarist only, or bring more musicians for a fuller sound.
I also have access to flamenco dancers and guitarists, if the client would like to see a flamenco performance. I can speak fluent Spanish and English, conversational Portuguese and French. Can also sing in those four languages.
