diego-spanishaustralia

Singer, guitarist and producer Diego Guerrero looks beyond convention and history to fuse the passionate music and songs of flamenco with Afro-Cuban rhythms and the added spice of contemporary jazz - a blend reflected in the personnel of his septet.

With his Spanish compadres of flamenco guitarist José Fernández and singer Naike Ponce is a skilled Cuban rhythm section - bassist Dany Noel, pianist Luis Guerra and drummer Pico Miliám - and flamboyant percussionist Nasrine Rahmani, of Persian and Mauritian heritage.

Diego, born in Andalusia and now living in Madrid, is recognised as a ground breaking young innovator, twisting strains of tango and copla, salsa and jazz into flamenco, yet remaining faithful to the purity of the music's essence.
