ABOUT QAIRO:
FLAMENCO - TURKISH - MEDITERRANEAN FUSION
Based in Bordeaux, France, Qairo is a fiery and dynamic ensemble that combines the emotionally charged vocals and pulsing rhythms of flamenco with the infectious melodies and ear-popping tonalities of the Mediterranean diaspora. It’s Turkish micro-tones played on a saxophone, original flamenco verses “sung” by a clarinet, Balkan rhythms punctuated by Andalusian guitar, and flamenco footwork pounded out like improvised jazz. Qairo is guitar, oud, clarinet, saxophone, drums, electric bass, cante (flamenco song) and baile (flamenco dance) acting like they belong on stage together — and pulling it off. Based in Bordeaux, France, Qairo is a fiery and dynamic ensemble that combines the emotionally charged vocals and pulsing rhythms of flamenco with the infectious melodies and ear-popping tonalities of the Mediterranean diaspora. From Spain to Turkey (with stops along the way), Qairo is music for dancing — no matter where you’re from.
Qairo will release their first studio album September 27, 2024 at the prestigious Rocher de Palmer en Bordeaux, France.
