Guitar sounds, fiery rhythms, the first Catalan vocal lines - a descendant of the famous flamenco musician José Reyes?
Not quite: it is the music of just 18 years Kendji Girac. And he is not a grandson of French, Spanish-born flamenco pop group Gypsy Kings, but the winner of "The Voice of France" in 2014. The talented Frenchman, who comes from a traveling Aboristen family combines the best of Spanish-Catalan Gypsy -Klängen and French folk-pop. At the age of 13 years his grandfather brought the guitar playing and then on the music grew into the most important constant in Kendjis life.
Kendji Girac allowed twice over the NRJ Music Award - "French newcomer" and happy "French Song of the Year" and for his extensive tour of France, he received the stamp "Sold Out". It seems almost unreal, what implications has already reached his musical work in such a short time. The demand is growing steadily, and it is time to spread the wings and to put up with an international release yet another milestone.
On 05 June Kendji Giracs first single "Color Gitano", which started in France directly on the pole position of the charts appear. In addition, the corresponding music video sparked an unimaginable click-through rate. In figures: 33 million clicks on the official video for "Color Gitano". On June 19, the accompanying album "Kendji" appears. It will be interesting.
Dimitri Kechagias review: Europe is such a beautiful place. It is packed with so many intresting cultures, beautiful languages and most importantly strong traditional musics that make Europe the most cultural place in earth. The upcoming singer Kendji Giracs delivers his magnificent song Color Gitano that is absolutely mindblowing. The fantastic quitar riffs, the flamenco influences and the uplifting rhythm makes difficult not to start dreaming of your summer holidays while you listen to it. His performance has great calming moments and some great explosive dynamic sides as well that makes him one of the most hopeful for his generation. Color Gitano is the perfect escape song for this summer and the deep melodic house remix by Plong is simply the finest version for those Ibiza teraces parties and laid back relaxing Sunday afternoon. Great version that elevates the original to the next level adding that current deep melodic electronic house flavour. It's summer essential anthem! #PureGold Love It
