PATCHAI REYES - former member of Gipsy Kings
Patchai Reyes is a founding member of the iconic Gipsy Kings, born into a Gitano family in Arles, France, and son of renowned flamenco singer José Reyes. As part of the original lineup, he helped bring rumba flamenca to global fame with hits like "Bamboleo". Patchai currently tours with his own group, "Gipsy Kings by Patchai Reyes”.
Who has not danced on Bamboléo ? Since 1987, the Gipsy Kings are the French group, which is the most exported, especially to the United States (first French artists “gold record” in America).
After receiving the 2014 Grammy Award for World Music, we realize that Gipsy Kings‘s music crossed through the decades without a wrinkle, on the contrary.
After nearly 40 years career, Jose REYES‘s four sons, Manitas de Platas‘s singer, continue to perpetuate, worldwide, Soul and Culture of the Gypsies, in various musical projects.
And filiation continues with the same talent, the same authenticity and passion for Flamenco and Gypsy Rumba.
With NEW GIPSY, Patchaï REYES passes the baton to his son and son-in-law who maintain the tradition by bringing their experiences, their youth…their renewal.
Manitas de Platas, at a ceremony, officially transmitted the Gypsy Torch to Mario RÉGIS, lead guitarist in the group : succession is now assured.
On stage, generations gather for concerts emotionally charged, alternating Rumbas festive and nostalgic songs which tell their History.
