Una y carne

Description

« Uña y carne », or the fusion relationship between two inseparable beings, Chicuelo and guitar! Juan Gómez « Chicuelo » was born in 1968 in Barcelona, a city with a long flamenco tradition due to a strong Andalusian immigration. Very young, he started with traditional flamenco singing even before opting for the guitar. Hence the intensity of his ties with the young generation of Catalan « cantaores »: he recorded as early as 1994 with Mayte Martín, then regularly accompanied Duquende and Miguel Poveda with whom he produced several albums. Enough to satisfy his passion for cante: « That's why there is little singing in my records... and because these are guitar records » Passionate about music in all its forms, he collaborates with musicians from all backgrounds, including the collaboration with Pakistani singer Faiz Ali Faiz for the incredible « Qawwali Flamenco », released in 2013 on the Accords Croisés label.
