Diego del Morao

Wednesday, September 26, 8pm; Yoshi’s Oakland – TICKETS

One of the most sought-after guitarists on today’s scene, he is known for his work with artists such as Diego el Cigala, José Mercé and Niña Pastori. Even Paco de Lucía made a cameo appearance on his recent solo release “Orate” (2010 Cigala Music). He is the son of the legendary guitarist “Moraíto,” who along with his uncle Manuel Morao, developed the signature sound of traditional Jerez-style flamenco guitar. Diego del Morao takes that legacy into the 21st century.
