Gipsy Kings at Wolf Trap

To order tickets, visit the Wolf Trap website.

From the press release:
Begin in Catalonia and follow the coast into France, curving through fishing villages, farming communities, wild lands where white horses run free and huge black bulls are bred for fighting. Nearby stand the aboriginal cities of Perpignan, Montpellier and Arles. This is fertile terrain, fought over across millennia, home to Roman aqueducts and amphitheatres, once host to Cezanne, Van Gogh and Gauguin, long renowned for fine wines and fierce people. And today the region�south historic equally the land of Gipsy Kings.

Pasajero (Tinto Tinta) is very much a production of the South of France�s cultural flux. Beyond Pasajero�s 14 tracks raw flamenco, jazzy guitar, Latin rhythms, Cuban popular, even traces of reggae and Standard arabic music weave together. For almost two decades the Gipsy Kings accept been musical heavyweights, filling international arenas and selling over xviii one thousand thousand albums; Pasajero finds the world�s favourite not-English speaking band on the road again.

The Gipsy Kings are that rare thing � a household name famous solely for their music; the nigh successful French musical outfit e'er are large in Brazil and pop (extremely so) in Persia, honoured at The Alamo in Texas and celebrated in China. All this achieved without MTV videos, hype, reality Tv set appearances, famous girlfriends, bad behaviour�an international audience won over purely by the music and the big, welcoming soulfulness of its creators. That�s no ordinary accomplishment. Understandably, the Gipsy Kings are extraordinary characters: to play guitar and sing is something their fathers, grandfathers and ancestors did. The Gipsy Kings make music as communion, artistry rooted in the past yet focused on the future.

The Gipsy Kings consist of two bands of brothers: the Reyes (Nicolas, Canut, Paul, Patchai, Andre) and the Baliardos (Tonino, Paco, Diego). They took initial shape when the teenage Reyes boys began backing their begetter Jose. Jose Reyes, singing alongside guitarist Manitas de Plata, did much to popularise flamenco internationally: John Steinbeck, Charlie Chaplin, Pablo Picasso, Miles Davis and Salvador Dali were amid the duo�south admirers. Jose�s death devastated his sons all the same pb to a fortuitous encounter with the Baliardos at the St Marie de la Mer Gitan pilgrimage. On that warm night, as they passed the guitar, shared songs and vino, history was shaped.

Initially, the Reyes and Baliardos busked on the streets of Cannes, played weddings and parties, young men flavouring flamenco with Western popular and Latin rhythms. When an American gentleman told the ring their proper name Los Reyes meant �The Kings� in English they realised they were built-in to be Gipsy Kings. In 1987 The Gipsy Kings� selftitled debut album introduced the world to �rumba Gitano� � the sound of South America�due south rumba rhythm married to flamenco guitars � and with �Bamboleo� the Gipsy Kings scored a huge international hit. Since then the Kings take never stopped singing to the globe.

Pasajero (Tinto Tinta) finds the Gipsy Kings post-obit on from the acclaimed 2004 album Roots. Roots involved a literal return to the band�southward roots: the audio-visual music they grew up playing at Gypsy gatherings beyond the southward of France and Catalonia. Roots is an album of startling beauty, the raw, soulful voices of the Reyes� matched with the magical guitar coaction of the Baliardo brothers. A number of obstacles had kept the Kings out of the studio and off the European bout circuit for several years; Roots showcased a band hungry to prove themselves, intent on displaying their artistry. �Magnificent� said BBC DJ Charlie Gillett. �Treasure� exclaimed Billboard. Roots re-established the Kings with both their core audience and world music fans, many having forgotten the Kings were world music�s kickoff superstars.

Pasajero continues this journey, building on Roots while adding the fiery Latin American flavours long a part of the Gipsy Kings sound. Produced by Phillipe Eidel (celebrated for his work with Khaled), Pasajero is the sound of musical legends celebrating their heritage. Across the album Pasajero offers great vocal performances from Nicolas and Canut and Andre and Patchai (a band with four master singers!) while those irresistible rumba-Gitano rhythms catamenia forth. Upwardly-tempo dance numbers �Si Tu Me Quieres (Yes, I Like Y'all)� and �Mira La Chica (Look At That Girl)� notice Nicolas celebrating his favourite subject while �Sol Y Luna (Sun & Moon)� allows Canut to wail those ancient Gypsy dejection.

Heed to Pasajero�s guitars: guitars played equally percussive instruments, pushing forth irresistibly raw grooves, and guitars played with grace and beauty - across three instrumentals (�Canastero�, �Guaranga�, �Recuerdo�) Tonino fuses flamenco�s vicious tone with Django Reinhardt�s jazzy lyricism so proving he�southward a main musician. The title track acknowledges how essential for Gypsies it is to keep moving. Album closer �La Vida de Gipsy (The Life of the Gipsy)� reflects on what it means to exist a 21st Century Gitano.

Today the Gipsy Kings nevertheless live with their families in the south of French republic. Life may have changed for them � they no longer busk on streets or option crops when times are hard or travel in caravans � merely all the same, at heart, they remain Gypsies, the proud descendants of an aboriginal people who seduced the world with music and trip the light fantastic toe. On Pasajero the Gipsy Kings continue their ballsy musical journey.
