Gypsy Kings Bio:
The Gipsy Kings are largely responsible for bringing the joyful sounds of progressive pop-oriented flamenco, called Sevillana in Spain, to the world. The band started out in Arles, a village in southern France during the '70s when brothers Nicolas and Andre Reyes, the sons of renowned flamenco artist Jose Reyes, teamed up with their cousins Jacques, Maurice and Tonino Baliardo, whose father is Manitas de Plata. Gipsy Kings originally called themselves Los Reyes and started out as a gypsy band traveling about playing weddings, festivals, and in the streets. Because Gipsy Kings lived so much like gypsies, the band adopted the name the Gipsy Kings.

Later, Gipsy Kings were hired to add color to posh parties in St. Tropez. Popularity did not come to Los Reyes right away and their first two albums attracted little notice. At this point the Gipsies played traditional, albeit passionate flamenco music punctuated by Tonino's precise guitar playing and Nicolas' exceptional voice. Though Gipsy Kings had devoted fans, Gipsy Kings still had yet to gain wider recognition until 1986 when Gipsy Kings hooked up with visionary producer Claude Martinez who could see that the Kings had the makings of a world-class band.
