Yerai Cortés is a guitarist and a rising star among the current generation of Flamenco artists. Last month he was invited to COLORS where he performed a piece titled Romance, and he returned this month for an encore performance of the song Sonar Por Bulerías. There is also a music video version of the latter.

Amazing sound, loose yet flowing. Thanks for this.

Fascinating player. He's so grounded in an old school approach, Sabicas and what sounds like the Moron style, and gorgeous technique... but there's something undeniably modern in what he's doing with it.
Very nice
