Reinis Jaunais and The Flamenco Thief

The unifying element of the music of Reinis Jaunais and The Flamenco Thief is the love of traveling the world where they first met during their long concert tours.

In the duo concert of the musicians, global instrumental music will intertwine with poetry by various authors in Latvian, flamenco guitar playing will interact with elements of Balkan, Latin American and Hip Hop music.

The musicians will use the technique of looping (recording different melodies on the spot and then playing them back at the same time), thus achieving an almost orchestral sound on stage, as well as using their instruments as live percussion.

“The music is a blend of upbeat, danceable Gypsy-swing guitar blended with Rumba and Balkan-beats using Flamenco techniques.”
