José Antonio Rodriguez is one of the most prolific and productive guitarists, musicians, and composers of recent years. This is evidenced by his extensive
discography and his ventures into different styles; all done naturally, bringing his enormous personality and style.
Now he surprises us with a pure and vibrant live formation. His music, together with the new members of his quintet, creates a wide range of sensations,
creativity, showmanship, and musicality that make the audience vibrate, not only rhythmically but also on a sensory level.
This new proposal encompasses everything that is the world of flamenco; from singing, guitar, new instrumentations, dance… but from a modern, innovative,
and thrilling perspective.
Not in vain, José Antonio’s latest work “Es Lo Que Es” marks the incursion of flamenco guitar into Smooth Jazz, alongside great musicians of this genre such
as Dave Koz, Michael Lington, Marc Antoine, and Amy Kiss, among others. In addition to his usual collaborations with Al Di Meola, Strunz & Farah, etc.
We are in front of what will be the definitive band of the coming decades and a composer whose level is comparable to the great musicians of other styles.
Everything aligns for a result of exceptional and flawless quality in its entirety.
