Camaron

Experience high energy acoustic music as Camaron combines the old songs of Andalucia with the modern sounds of Flamenco to tell the story of southern Spain through his guitar.
Camaron’s extensive experience culminates in his original compositions that will take your breath away and make you marvel at his virtuosic performance.
By utilising his knowledge both cultural and musical in traditional flamenco, Camaron expands it further by incorporating his vast experience in all styles of music and a personal touch of Australian flavour. This results in a deeply melodic, rhythmic and original artistic sound.
