Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

We've performed at prestigious festivals including La Feria de Londres and Vauxhall Sabor Festival, and are regularly featured at renowned Spanish restaurants across London. Whether for intimate gatherings or large events, our vibrant performances infuse each occasion with energy, artistry, and tradition.


What's your favourite type of event?

We love performing at events where there’s an opportunity for real cultural connection—whether that’s an intimate gathering where the audience can feel the pulse of the cajón and the raw emotion of the cante, or a larger festival where we can bring the full force of flamenco’s energy to the stage. Events that celebrate diversity, art, and heritage are especially close to our hearts. There’s something incredibly special about seeing people from all walks of life respond to the universal language of rhythm and passion that flamenco embodies.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

Each member of our ensemble has a unique journey, but we came together through a shared love of flamenco and live performance. Our individual paths began in different parts of Spain, the UK, and beyond—dancing in Madrid, studying jazz in Leeds, learning rhythm in Hyderabad, or composing on the violin in London. We started gigging locally—Spanish restaurants, cultural events, small festivals—and soon found that our fusion of traditional and contemporary flamenco resonated deeply with audiences. Over time, this led to bookings at prestigious venues and festivals like La Feria de Londres, Royal Festival Hall, and Vauxhall Sabor.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

Flamenco is a living tradition, and we’re constantly inspired by the greats—Camarón de la Isla for his revolutionary voice, Paco de Lucía for his masterful guitar, and Sara Baras for her powerful, expressive dance. We also draw influence from artists who bridge cultures, like Anoushka Shankar and Nitin Sawhney, reflecting our own fusion approach.
As for a favourite artist, it would be hard to name just one, but Paco de Lucía stands out for the way he modernised flamenco while keeping its soul intact.
And the greatest song of all time? That’s always a personal choice, but “Entre dos aguas” by Paco de Lucía is a timeless masterpiece. It’s a piece that transcends genre, showcasing virtuosity, emotion, and cultural richness—all things we strive to bring to our performances.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

We usually arrive around 1 hour before the performance to allow time for setup, soundcheck, and any last-minute adjustments. Our standard format is 2 x 30minute set s (traditional flamenco) or 2 x 45-minute sets, depending on the event and audience preferences. We're happy to adapt to different timings if needed, but we've found these set lengths offer the best balance of energy and engagement.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, we’re happy to perform outdoors—flamenco under the open sky can be magical! We just ask for a few essentials: a flat, stable surface (especially for dance), shade or cover to protect our instruments and equipment, and access to a nearby power supply. We’ll always work with the event team to ensure everything runs smoothly.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

We love working with clients to create the perfect musical experience. You're welcome to choose songs from our existing repertoire, or we can curate a set list tailored to the vibe of your event. We’re also happy to learn up to 2 specific songs with enough notice—especially if they hold special meaning for your occasion.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Clients often describe our performances as passionate, vibrant, and emotionally moving. They highlight the authenticity of our flamenco, the dynamic interplay between the music and dance, and the powerful connection we create with the audience. Whether it's a festival, private event, or cultural celebration, we're often told that our shows are a highlight of the evening—captivating, soulful, and unforgettable.
