Our episode on 26th June will be on Marcos's Top 5 festivals! A little teaser for you - just one of the incredible stories he shares.


Flamenco Attitude moves beyond the stage to explore the soul of a living art form. Each episode is a conversation between a curious host and an expert co-host, unpacking the rhythms, history, and raw emotion that define flamenco culture. You’ll hear discussions that range from the technical intricacies of playing guitar or the footwork of dance to the broader lifestyle and philosophy that fuels this passionate expression. The podcast regularly highlights the great artists, both legendary and contemporary, who shape the genre’s evolving story. It’s an invitation to understand the attitude behind the music-the duende, the tradition, and the modern innovations. Alongside these deep-dive conversations, the show often incorporates musical selections, offering a curated auditory experience that complements the talk. For anyone drawn to the sound of a soleá or the intensity of a performer’s gaze, this podcast provides context, appreciation, and a genuine connection to a fascinating world. Tune in for a journey into the heart of flamenco, where every palo and compás has a tale to tell.
