  • “Paul Robert Burton Band”
    “PAUL ROBERT BURTON BAND” The “Paul Robert Burton Band” is a musical collaboration, presenting to the public an expanding ensemble of world-class virtuoso musicians from an infinitely wide variety of musical styles and genres. Every player is unique, however they all have something very much in common, commitment and dedication to the Arts. Music can transport the soul to higher realms and these musicians together invoke that feeling. “ We can easily say that Paul Robert Burton and his band were the standout act at this year’s Kiama Jazz & Blues Festival. Where ever he played and in whatever venue (café, outdoor concert, club) or line up (from solo to full on band) the crowds were huge, bopping and excited. Venues were full to capacity and then some! During a sidewalk café appearance, the crowds spilled onto the street & stopped traffic! Apart from his musical gifts, Paul was appreciated by festival management as a source of information regarding other artists, and brought great energy, inspiration and spirit to our Festival. People raved for weeks afterwards, and purchased Paul’s CD’s aplenty, and we have had considerable requests since the festival as to where & when Paul might play again. ” Ross Eggleton, Festival Director Eevi Stein, Festival Coordinator & Publicity Kiama Jazz & Blues Festival April 1- 3 2011 PAUL ROBERT BURTON (Songwriter, Producer, Sound Engineer, Upright Bass, Foot Drums, Guitarlele, Harmonicas, Ocarinas and Vocals) www.paulrobertburton.com www.reverbnation.com/paulrobertburton www.youtube.com/paulrobertburton Paul Robert Burton is a Multi-tasking, Multi-instrumentalist, Singer, Songwriter, Producer and Sound Engineer.

  • Camarón at the Centre of New Flamenco
    CAMARÓN AT THE CENTRE OF NEW FLAMENCO RICARDO PACHÓN1 The man who produced the great works of Camarón de la Isla, Pata Negra and Veneno explains, in a fascinating and surprisingly detailed manner, how what is now known as “New Flamenco” emerged around these figures. Everything was started, of course, in the United States by a gypsy named Agustín Castellón, also known as “Sabicas”. The result was two albums recorded in 1967 with guitar player Joe Beck under the title Rock Encounter. If traditional flamenco had to explode and become out of control, it chose the best ally in those days: rock & roll. California’s revolution landed in Andalusia through three American military bases: Morón, Rota and San Pablo. It apparently was an intentional landing in flamenco territory that settled in towns with an important gypsy population between Seville and Cadiz: Alcalá, Lebrija, Morón, Utrera, Jerez, Arcos, the Puertos… The 1960’s. With the Americans came recordings of freedom and the West Coast psychedelic revolution. Seville suddenly became a new and strange city within the context of National-Catholicism. A city filled with long-haired boys who caused passers-by to turn their heads. A city where adults could buy “laughing cigarettes” in candy kiosks, and where legionnaires coming from Ceuta and Melilla after completing their service could legally bring a suitcase full of weed. That is why the second wild era of flamenco was born here, thanks again to another portentous gypsy, Manuel Molina, and the city’s most underground band, Smash. It was only 1970 when we witnessed an attempt to blend rock and flamenco.
