Flamenco Express returns to London with a new cargo of raw, heart-wrenching flamenco – with 'sizzling soloist’ La Joaquina, guitar virtuoso Chris Clavo, the vocal dynamism of Jasmine Villalobos and the blazing talent of Adrián Brenes.
For thirty years, Flamenco Express has existed to do justice to this unique art form. Choosing the best artists and allowing them total freedom of expression. The result is an honest window to freedom and life in world of lies.
A fresh emotional and artistic world every night.
