“Keep it real folks, with authentic flamenco adventures.”
WHO: Philip Adie, Performer/bandleader
WHAT: “Straight from Sevilla, the Philip Adie Trio bring us a bold and unique fusion of musical styles. With a heart of pure flamenco, and infused with jazz influences, this is flamenco with a twist. Led by the talented guitarist Philip Adie (taught by flamenco legend Paco Peña), along with double bass and drums, the group explores new landscapes in a constant search for new sounds and compositions. Their first time in the UK, the trio will be playing selections from their latest album Stone Free Flamenco, which is producing lots of interest in Spain.”

Is this your first time to Edinburgh?
Yes.
What’s the biggest thing to have happened to you since Festivals ’18?
Produced and recorded an album of original flamenco music with two extraordinary Andalusian jazz musicians. That, and being alive in this incredibly inspiring thing called LIFE!!
Tell us about your show.
Our show is an hour or so of highly creative and original flamenco jazz music, not elevator flamenco jazz, as so much you hear is, but passionate, alive, teeth bearing, original, on the edge, searching and very moving music, of course, it has its moments of tranquillity and even collaboration with a dancer or singer from the Alba Flamenco dance company.
This show is being produced by Alba Flamenco and we’re very grateful they’ve invited us to the fringe.
We’re a trio who play around Seville, we know each other from the music scene where there is a crossover between flamenco and jazz musicians. I apart from being a professional and titled flamenco guitarist also have made forays into jazz music.
We’ve just recorded our first CD, Stone Free Flamenco and after it’s release at the Ed Fringe intend to take its music on the road and create new music along the way.
What should your audience see at the festivals after they’ve seen your show?
India Flamenco and Alba Flamenca, actually they can be seen before us as they’re on at the same venue earlier in the evening 🙂
Oh aye ! Keep it real folks, with authentic flamenco adventures at venue 237 Alba Flamenca.
