About El Barrio
José Luis Figuereo Franco, better known as El Barrio, is one of a few artists pushing the borders of flamenco both farther and wider. Influenced by the Andalusian rock scene, El Barrio argues that his musical path is closer to artists like Triana, Alameda, Medina Azahara, and Cai than traditional flamenco. That said, his past is certainly steeped in flamenco tradition. Before gaining any attention as a vocalist, he was a guitarist playing in the restaurants and bars of Madrid and Cadiz, embarking on a performance career even before his teen years. After his debut solo record in 1996, El Barrio recorded regularly and to consistently positive reviews, if not impressive sales. ~ Evan C. Gutierrez
