What's your story?
El Payo is a Rumba/Nuevo Flamenco-Fused group based in Chicago. Its members come from diverse ethnic backgrounds, hailing from countries such as Mexico, Ecuador, Columbia and the United States. Their distinct sound is influenced by a rich combination of rumbas, traditional and modern flamenco, as well Flamenco-fused original compositions. Their dynamic, soulful sound is usually accompanied by intense flamenco dance performances. The group opened up the prestigious 2005 and 2006 USA Flamenco Festival in Chicago. They have opened up for internationally know artists like Juan Carmona, Pitingo and Lila Downs. They have also appeared on ABC’s Chicagoing with Bill Campell.
