Exciting Flamenco and Jazz Fusion album
Brilliant and amazing is just a start to describe the latest released album “Aras,” by the highly talented artists Miguel Espinoza and Ty Burhoe, aka Curandero. This six-track disc covers the style of Flamenco embedded with jazz fusion and offers some delightfully interesting and stunning pieces. Incorporating the unique blend of Flamenco guitar, tabla, banjo, and bass the sound textures this group creates is truly fabulous. “Segue” is jazz fire and fury at its best with funky bass lines, driving drum beats, and excellent guitar. Taking the mood to a more serene ambiance, “River” gently flows with a calmness of peaceful tranquility. “Once Upon a Time,” features the banjo as the main instrument with an exceptional display of finger picking. Fans of jazz fusion and Flamenco won’t be disappointed when listening to Curandero’s “Aras,” with its creative and distinctive charm of the well-focused and talented cast of musicians.

…healer or shaman...
Curandero (a term that means healer or shaman) is the musical duo of Ty Burhoe and flamenco guitarist Miguel Espinoza. Together they weave a unique multi-cultural hybrid sound – Burhoe with his Asian-flavored tabla beats and various percussion instruments and Espinoza with his Spanish guitar strains. On ARAS, the pair are further joined by bluegrass legend Bela Fleck on banjo and both Kai Eckhardt and Eric Thorin on bass.
