The Gipsy Kings are universal. Based on flamequito<\/em> or rumba-pop fusion, depending on who you ask, they continue to imbued concerts and enthuse different generations. At the Starlite Occident Gala in 2023 they have presented a record and have shown that they are still kings. <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”@ET-DC@eyJkeW5hbWljIjp0cnVlLCJjb250ZW50IjoicG9zdF9mZWF0dXJlZF9pbWFnZSIsInNldHRpbmdzIjp7fX0=@” _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _dynamic_attributes=”src” width=”90%” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”1%||1%||false|false” custom_padding=”1%||1%||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ image_caption_font=”Domine||||||||” image_caption_color=”#000000″ image_caption_size=”16px” image_caption_lineheight=”3em” image_caption_alignment=”left” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.22.1″ module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”1%||1%||false|false” custom_padding=”1%||1%||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.1″ text_font=”Domine||||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”20px” text_line_height=”32em” text_orientation=”justified” text_font_size_tablet=”15px” text_font_size_phone=”14px” text_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n From the moment Gipsy Kings and Nicol\u00e1s Reyes made their appearance in the Marbella auditorium of the Srtalite Festival, young and old stood up and never stopped dancing and singing.

In fact, Nicol\u00e1s was the founding singer and Tonino Baliardo, the guitarist. The group is now Gipsy Kings by Nicolas Reyes, but depending on whether or not Reyes participates, it can be called “by Toni Baliardo”.<\/p>\n Toni’s two sons, Mika\u00ebl and Cosso, have been in the training since it began in 2014. On occasion, Baliardo has spoken of the great importance for him of transmitting the legacy to his descendants. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Taking advantage of their concert at this boutique festival, they also performed new songs from “Savor Flamenco”, their ninth studio album and their first release in six years.

They split into small groups that acted with or without legal backing until only two remained. In addition to the one that could be enjoyed in Marbella, Andr\u00e9s Reyes (Nicol\u00e1s’s brother) and Chico Bouchikhi lead Andr\u00e9 Reyes ft. Gipsy Kings.<\/p>\n They claim to get along cordially. Some statements by Andr\u00e9 make clear the solution they have adopted: “There are no fights, there is nothing like that. Each one has their share of countries to play because each one has to work and make their life.”<\/em> <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” width=”90%” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”0px||||false|false” custom_padding=”0px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,2_3″ _builder_version=”4.22.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.22.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/allflamenco.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Nicolas-Reyes.jpg” alt=”Nicolas Reyes at Marbella” title_text=”Nicolas Reyes” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.22.0″ _module_preset=”default” enable_caption_text=”on” image_caption_font=”Domine||||||||” image_caption_color=”#000000″ image_caption_size=”16px” image_caption_lineheight=”3em” image_caption_alignment=”left” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/allflamenco.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Toni-Baliardo.jpg” alt=”Toni Baliardo with the current Gipsy Kings. ” title_text=”Toni Baliardo” _builder_version=”4.22.0″ _module_preset=”default” enable_caption_text=”on” image_caption_font=”Domine||||||||” image_caption_color=”#000000″ image_caption_size=”16px” image_caption_lineheight=”3em” image_caption_alignment=”left” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”4.22.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/allflamenco.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/STARLITE-OCCIDENT.jpg” alt=”Tickets sold out days before his performance.

All are descendants of Spaniards who immigrated to France.<\/p>\n Furthermore, they are related to the most jondo flamenco. The former, because of his father, Jos\u00e9 Reyes, a well-known cantaor, and the latter, because they are relatives of the most important flamenco figure in France (now deceased), Manitas de Plata.<\/p>\n The first band from the early 70’s was called Los Reyes; in 1987, they say that due to “fault” of Brigitte Bardot, they are baptized as Gipsy Kings. That same year the album with the theme Bamboleo<\/em> was released. Two years later, his second success would come with Volare<\/em>. The artists became very popular in France, Europe and the Middle East. In 1988, the group embarked on their first tour of the United States and charted for 40 weeks.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_testimonial _builder_version=”4.22.0″ _module_preset=”default” body_font=”Domine||||||||” body_text_color=”#000000″ body_font_size=”18px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n They have sold more than 60 million records worldwide.
