Diego El Cigala is regarded as the most exciting and innovative flamenco singer in the world today. Passionate, profound, and immensely proud of his Spanish gypsy heritage, El Cigala has found success in his interpretations of this distinctly Spanish art form.
Diego El Cigala has been called "the Sinatra of flamenco." With two Grammys and five Latin Grammy nominations this celebrated artist stays true to his musical heritage yet has achieved accolades with mainstream audiences around the world. His artistic journey began singing in flamenco pénas and tablaos where his artistry was recognized by world class bailaores such as Mario Maya, Farruco, and Carrasco. His earthy, exultant, and richly emotive voice marks as one of the great singers of the last century.
