Vicente Amigo U.S. Tour 2016 in Seattle

Latin Grammy Award-winning flamenco guitarist Vicente Amigo makes his Seattle debut.

Hailed as “the Sultan of Duende” and already an international sensation, Spanish-born flamenco guitarist Vicente Amigo won the Latin Grammy in 2001 for Best Flamenco Album for his BMG debut City of Ideas.

Over the past decade, Amigo’s global appeal has given him the opportunity to perform in many parts of the world, from the Far East to Cuba, Morocco and Tunisia to South America. From his childhood in the little village of Guadalcanal, Spain, the guitarist has been a great student of culture. His exposure to a wide range of musical expression and rhythmic possibility has allowed Amigo to expand beyond his trademark “roots of flamenco” approach to incorporate a mix of what he calls other feelings, outside roots.
