stLouISTCome hear a night of flamenco as you find it in the bars of Andalusian Spain. Blue Strawberry presents flamenco guitar virtuoso Juan Carmona and his band on Sunday, July 16th.
Widely regarded as one of the greatest living flamenco guitarists, Juan Carmona comes to the intimate Blue Strawberry for a night of unparalleled flamenco music. Although deeply connected to his Andalusian roots (Carmona is related to the Habichuela flamenco guitar dynasty from Granada), Carmona stands as an innovator. He is one of the most creative guitarists of the new flamenco generation, garnering Latin Grammy nominations for Best Flamenco Album of the Year five times.
