  • Puchero is a flamenco guitarist and composer with an international career. He has performed on numerous stages across Europe, Asia and the Middle East, in countries such as China, Germany, Croatia, Saudi Arabia, Russia, Italy and Switzerland. He has also taken part in several prestigious festivals, including the Festival Off de Jerez, the Festival Flora at the Mosque of Córdoba, the Festival de Cajón in Barcelona, the Ciutat Flamenca Festival and the Mediterránea Festival in Switzerland.

    He currently leads the project Gloria Bendita, bringing together singers Miguel Lavi and David el Galli, percussionist Perico Navarro and dancer Dani Navarro. The entire repertoire of the group is composed by Puchero, reflecting his personal vision of contemporary flamenco. He is also the author of the album Bordón Flamenco, featuring collaborations with Israel Fernández, La Fabi, Juaneque and Manuel Zambullo.

  • Anna Colom was born in Barcelona in 1985. She is a musician, cantaora (flamenco singer), composer and arranger. She holds a degree in Flamenco Singing from the Escola Superior de Música de Catalunya (ESMUC) and trained at the Fundación Cristina Heeren de Arte Flamenco in Seville.

    Colom has performed widely on stages including tablaos and theatres in Barcelona, Madrid and across Andalusia. She has also toured in more than ten countries, among them the United States, China, New Zealand, Mexico, Argentina and Switzerland.

    Her project Cayana explores the intersections between flamenco and diverse rhythms and folk traditions from around the world — Brazilian samba, Uruguayan candombe, Mexican fandango, Argentine zamba — offering an inventive and sensitive vision of flamenco singing.

    She has collaborated with a range of artists and projects, and was a backing vocalist on Rosalía’s El Mal Querer tour.

  • Beatriz Morales is a bailaora and choreographer born in Jerez de la Frontera (province of Cádiz) in 1984. She began dancing at the age of four and went on to train in flamenco, ballet and Spanish classical dance. She graduated from the Sociedad de Baile and later refined her skills in Seville under masters such as Manuel Betanzos (a former student of Manolo Marín), while also undertaking intensive courses with leading figures of flamenco.

    Professionally, she started performing in renowned tablaos early in her career — for example at El Cortijo in Stuttgart with Antonio Amador in 2004. She has also appeared in emblematic venues in Jerez and Seville such as Laga del Tío Parrilla and Los Gallos. In 2010 she founded her own company. Morales is equally recognised as a teacher and trainer, having begun to teach at the age of 13. Her style is described as distinctly personal, imbued with the flamencura of Jerez, with critics highlighting her “personality” and “unique flamencura”.

    Among her notable productions are: Flamenca, Flamenca, Flamenca (2012), Hembra Alpha (2019), and Flamenco Sin Sulfitos in collaboration with Agujetas Chico (2022).
