Featuring Nicolas Reyes, the legendary Gipsy Kings bring their Catalan rumba, flamenco, and salsa party back to Bristol in March 2024!Nicolas Reyes has been the leader and co-founder of the Gipsy Kings for well over 30 years. When Nicolas’ father, Jose Reyes’ celebrated flamenco duo Manitas de Plata (notably loved by Miles Davis and Pablo Picasso) disbanded, a new project was formed between the father-son duo; Los Reyes. In later years, Nicolas began playing in the town of Arles in the south of France. He traveled throughout the country, busking on the streets of Saint-Tropez, playing wherever he could. Having adopted the perpetual motion of the gypsy lifestyle, his band eventually translated “Los Reyes” and became the Gipsy Kings.
Their music has since fused with popular culture, with the band having played some of the world’s greatest stages, from the Hollywood Bowl to Royal Albert Hall as well as hitting the big screen. Their rendition of “Hotel California” was included in the film The Big Lebowski and the HBO series Entourage, with the 2010 film Toy Story 3 featured a Gipsy Kings version of the movie’s popular, Randy Newman-penned theme, “You’ve Got a Friend in Me”.
