"Los Amigos band exceeded all of our expectation and were amazing. Their acoustic Spanish sounds made everyone get on the dance floor. The music ranged from English & Spanish and sometimes with a twist of both - all sounded incredible. I would highly recommend this band for any event and will guarantee everyone on the dance floor."

Some flamenco groups may also be able to provide dancers as part of their show. If this is the case, make sure that they have adequate space to perform and liaise with you contact in the group when working this out.

About Flamenco music:

Flamenco is part of the folk music tradition of Spain, and dates back to the mid 1700s. While its creation is typically ascribed to the Romani people, there is some debate about its origins, and it may be a result of several different intercultural exchanges. It is typically a fast and expressive type of music, played to be danced to.

The nylon-strung guitar is the typical accompanying instrument, but flamenco music can also include percussion and other instruments. Popular flamenco performers include Paco De Lucia and Camaron De La Isla. The term also describes the style of dance that goes along with it.

Nowadays, flamenco has become a popular style all over the world, with more flamenco schools now residing in Japan than in Spain!

If you have any particular flamenco pieces you would like to hear, then make sure you speak to your act as far in advance as possible, as they will take time to learn and arrange.
