The unifying element of the music of Reinis Jaunais and The Flamenco Thief is the love of traveling the world where they first met during their long concert tours.
In the duo concert of the musicians, global instrumental music will intertwine with poetry by various authors in Latvian, flamenco guitar playing will interact with elements of Balkan, Latin American and Hip Hop.
The musicians will use the technique of looping (recording different melodies on the spot and then playing them back at the same time), thus achieving an almost orchestral sound on stage, as well as using their instruments as live percussion.
The Flamenco Thief & Reinis Jaunas (LV) will be playing two 45-minute sets on the night, with a selection of solo loop and songs featuring guest musicians.
Tickets £12 for all; advance booking essential.
