The Exotic Cerro Negro and Flamenco Puro

Spanish guitars, blended with Latin percussion, create the gypsy-influenced, acoustic sound of Cerro Negro. While incorporating the fusion of flamenco, Brazilian, and Jazz guitar techniques with Latin, Africa, and Middle-Eastern percussion, Cerro Negro’s music soars with passionate vocals embracing a village of rhythms, styles, and languages. Cerro Negro creates their own unique synergy by combining sounds from the roots of flamenco music with cutting-edge instrumentation and orchestration.
