“World class virtuoso” (Time Out) Spanish guitarist and composer EDUARDO NIEBLA is one of the most brilliant and emotive performers on the world circuit today, fusing “poignantly poetic…and truly fabulous” (The Scotsman) flamenco gypsy jazz with Arabic, Indian, Latin and classical influences, to create a truly “stunning” (The Sound) and “exhilarating” (Jazz Journal) musical experience “full of hot, dark, Mediterranean passion” (The Scotsman)
His concerts appearances have included the OLYMPIC GAMES GREECE, THE Tbilisi International Jazz Festival, Georgia, Glastonbury and the Brecon International Jazz Festivals, England, the San Isidro Fiesta, Madrid, in addition to numerous international festivals throughout Europe and the Baltic States. He has undertaken extensive concert tours to Eastern and Western Europe, the Middle East and South Africa and has received great critical acclaim:
“He gives pleasure that only a world class virtuoso at his best is capable of…he reached everyone in the packed hall…extremely impressive.” (Sakala News, Estonia)
“Astonishing interplay between the principals who wed technical fluidity and virtuosity to an unashamedly secular passion.” (Q Review)
Eduardo has recorded extensively, releasing 23 cds of his own compositions:
“A stunning collection of originals… which work wonderfully well, showing what Jelly Roll Morton called “the Spanish tinge” is still a potent force” (Jazz UK)
“Niebla proves his mastery and composing genius with every touch.” (Die Rheinpfalz)
These feature an array of internationally acclaimed musicians, including CARLES BENAVENT (bass), SALVADOR NIEBLA (drums), the spiritual Indian singer and percussionist PABAN DAS BAUL, ADEL SALAMEH (Palastinian oud player), WAJAHAT KHAN (sarod), KALA RAMNATH (Indian violin) and PURBAYAN CHATTERJEE (sitar). In addition Eduardo has collaborated with many international musicians on their recordings including maestro bamboo flute player DEEPAK RAM on Searching for Satyam, which subsequently won best instrumental album at the 2000 South African Music Awards. He has worked with Craig David, George Michael and Belinda Carlisle, as well as numerous other artists, and is currently collaborating with Ben Watkins of juno reactor (composer for the Matrix films) on his new recording.
Eduardo was born in Tangiers to Andalusian parents in 1955 and is the 7th son of the 7th child, regarded in mythology as a magical son. He has been resident in Britain since 1978, becoming a powerful force on the British music scene and influencing the trend for fusion and acoustic music across the world, whilst always remaining true to his humble roots and performing with an “exquisite melancholy” (The Scotsman) and heart-rendering quality that is EDUARDO NIEBLA.
