Juanito Makandé says that his great musical epiphany was sparked by listening to Camarón de la Isla. Since then, he has followed an unorthodox artistic path that has won him fans all over Spain.
This path is aligned with his fundamental principles: to maintain his independent profile to the maximum, and to nurture the language of flamenco-pop with influences drawn from Black music.
His approach makes possible interesting mixes of bulerías and R&B, rumbas with swing, and other combinations that connect historic Andalusian music with modern popular sounds.
