Flamenco Nights in North Bend
Join us at Piccola Cellars' Wine Tasting Room at the Old Fire House in North Bend for an evening of pure and inspiring Flamenco music and dance. Oleaje Flamenco's Daniel Azcarate and Amelia will be joined by powerhouse guitarist Jed Miley as we explore the tapestry of emotion, expression and energy of this tremendous art form. If you've never before experienced the raw magic of Flamenco, you're in for a treat! Created and developed by the Gypsies of southern Spain and now a highly respected and sought after performance art throughout the world, Flamenco is a highly charged and rhythmically sophisticated form that combines structured improvisation with individual expression, which gives rise to an entirely unique performance each and every time.
About the performers... Amelia has been performing dance internationally on stages large and small for nearly 20 years and has devoted herself to Flamenco since 2006. She began her Flamenco studies under the tutelage of Encarnacion 'La Paloma' and Sara de Luis, and travels regularly to study with such greats as Pastora Galvan, Andres Pena, Alfonso Losa and Jose Maya among others. She is known for her authentic expression and technical fluidity that thrills and delights audiences. Also a talented Flamenco guitarist, Daniel Azcarate began his journey into Flamenco in 2007 and soon discovered that he had a knack and affinity for Flamenco singing, or Cante. With his natural ability to convey deep emotion and evoke the pure spirit of Flamenco, he has quickly become one of the most sought after Flamenco singers in the U.S. He has been living in Seville, Spain for the last two years where he studies and performs Flamenco. This will be Daniel Azcarate's last U.S. show before returning to Spain. Jed Miley is a Flamenco guitarist, composer, producer and teacher based in Seattle. He began playing Flamenco guitar in 1996, after hearing a recording of Sabicas. In Seattle, Jed was lucky to find Marcos Carmona as his first Flamenco guitar teacher and later worked in La Pena Flamenca de Seattle with Rubina Carmona. In 2003, he moved to New York where he worked professionally for several years, playing at prestigious venues including Lincoln Center, Symphony Space, Joe's Pub, Caramoor Festival, Jacob's Pillow and various tablaos. In 2009, Jed joined Flamenco Vivo Carlota Santana and performed, toured and acted as a teaching artist with the company for three years. Jed has studied extensively in Seville, Spain at La Fundacion Cristina Heeren with Nino de Pura, Jose Antonio Rodriguez, and Pedro Sierra. In addition to playing traditional Flamenco, Jed is known for stretching harmonic and melodic structures with his Flamenco fusion projects and collaborates with artists such as Alfonso Cid, Elena Andujar, Miguel Vargas, and Sara Erde. In 2011, Jed travelled to Spain as a producer of the documentary, "Hola, Flamenco" that aired at the Philadelphia independent film festival in the summer of 2012. He recently finished producing a Flamenco/Jazz fusion album for the guitarist Nathan Herrera, SueƱos, which was released in January 2012, and his own Flamenco Rock band Dientes de Caramelo released their debut album, Pulpo, in March 2012. Since returning to Seattle, Jed has been working on creating his new recording studio, Pinche Studios, which opened in 2013. The venue is the charming and stylish Piccola Cellars wine tasting room in the renovated Old Fire House in North Bend, only 30 minutes from Downtown Seattle.
