The neo-flamenco guitarist Niño Josele, born Juan Jose Heredia in Almería in 1974, comes from a long line of traditional Spanish musicians and, like most children born to musical families, started playing as a child. Unlike his forebears, though, he has made a trademark of versatility, especially since the 2006 release of Paz, his critically lauded dedication to the jazz pianist <a href="spotify:artist:4jXfFzeP66Zy67HM2mvIIF">Bill Evans</a>. With contributions from such jazz luminaries as Joe Lavano and <a href="spotify:artist:3AT9157jK9F2gMSViMdRUH">Marc Johnson</a>, Paz, a collection of reconfigured <a href="spotify:artist:4jXfFzeP66Zy67HM2mvIIF">Evans</a> works, established Josele as a visionary fusionist; by laying down tracks both lush and spare, Josele arrived at the artful intersection between flamenco and traditional jazz. Prior to Paz, Josele appeared on collaborations with <a href="spotify:artist:4rJk8GmrNf1g07EsuoZSzJ">Enrique Morente</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:7mLYMGXg84miYydKwi2aRi">Diego el Cigala</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:3qeECzqe5c7ssusMaDdwbj">Bebo Valdés</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:3tAICgiSR5PfYY4B8qsoAU">Andrés Calamaro</a>; he also participated in the short film Almendros los Plaza Nueva. His previous solo releases are Calle Ancha (1995) and Niño Josele (2003). ~ Tammy La Gorce, Rovi
