El Payo is a popular Rumba/Nuevo Flamenco-Fused group based in Chicago celebrating the release of their self-titled debut album. This CD is 12 tracks of original music. Their distinct sound is infused with elements of rock, salsa, ska, and reggae with unmistakable overtones of passionate raw energy that is flamenco music. The band includes singer David Gonzalez, guitarist David Chiriboga, percussionist/drummer Raul Fernandez, bass guitarist Tom Kimball, percussionist Javier Saume, trumpet player Victor Garcia and Augustine Alvarez on electric guitar.

"El Payo's dominating and sexy performance is a hidden treasure of the flamenco world." Danny Barbarigos, La Tasca Tapas
