El Pele & Vicente Amigo - Canto

The time for their roads to come together again has arrived. It was a pending matter for Vicente Amigo and El Pele to cross paths. And they have done so at a geodesic point called ‘Canto’, twelve years after having separated their professional careers. With their hearts as a source of complicity, the Córdoba-born guitarist and cantaor share their art with universalizing intentions, wishing to turn into extroverted the introverted. Neither borders, nor labels, nor hieroglyphics… but rather depth, legibility, soul, transcendence. And they say so themselves, proud of having conceived and developed a record “at the same level as any pop, rock, jazz, or whatever star, because it might be flamenco, but it’s an awesome album no matter where you play it”. -
