Piculabe
Enrique Bermúdez “Piculabe”, a flamenco singer born in Madrid, began his musical career singing in the choir of the Evangelical Church. Thanks to a recording that made an impact in flamenco neighbourhoods, he met Juan José Suarez “Paquete,” recording his first track and signing with Universal Music.

He has collaborated with renowned international artists such as Jorge Pardo and Tomatito, and his discography includes *Camino y Tiempo* (2008) and *Canta y Sueña* (2012). Since 2012, he has been invited by the Antonio Gades company for various shows worldwide, performing in prestigious venues such as the National Theatre of Beijing and the Roman Theatre of Verona. In 2014, guitarist Juan Carmona invited him to join his international tour.
