Carmen

There have been at least 6 groups, and at least one solo artist, existing under the name 'Carmen'. 1) A unique English-American band, Carmen combined flamenco music with progressive rock. Adding to their distinctiveness was the fact that during long instrumental passages, members of the band would dance onstage, adding those sounds to the instrumental mix. Carmen consists of:
David Allen (vocals, electric and acoustic guitars, keyboards) who wrote most of the music of Carmen

Artist Type: 

Rodrigo y Gabriela

Rodrigo Sanchez and Gabriela Quintero are two fast-fingered, Dublin-based Mexicans with a unique sound created on acoustic guitars. Their music is difficult to define, straddling both world and rock and often imbued with timeless Hispano – classical influences. The fire in it comes from their life-long passion for metal music. In spring 2006, “Rodrigo y Gabriela,” beat both the Arctic Monkeys AND Johnny Cash to number one in the Irish charts. Both the artists and their third self–titled album have gone on to enjoy international success since its initial release in early 2006.

Eduardo Niebla

“World class virtuoso” (Time Out) Spanish guitarist and composer EDUARDO NIEBLA is one of the most brilliant and emotive performers on the world circuit today, fusing “poignantly poetic…and truly fabulous” (The Scotsman) flamenco gypsy jazz with Arabic, Indian, Latin and classical influences, to create a truly “stunning” (The Sound) and “exhilarating” (Jazz Journal) musical experience “full of hot, dark, Mediterranean passion” (The Scotsman)

Artist Type: 

El Puchero del Hortelano

Young Flamenco band from Granada (Spain). There are diverse influences in their music from styles as diverse as reggae, rock and classical. The instruments used (trumpet, cello, flamenco box, base drum, distorted guitar) are unique too. The lyrics are both socially involved and funny. Closely related to G5, kiko veneno, Canteca de Macao, and Muchachito bombo infierno, the voice of the main singer has evolved a lot recently and it has now a really deep flamenco resonance.
