Participants
Antón Ávarez
Director/Musician

Antón Álvarez (Madrid, 1990), better known as C. Tangana, is an artist, singer, composer and producer. He has released five albums, the third of which, El Madrileño (2021), was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Latin Rock or Alternative Album and harvested three Latin Grammys. In 2023 the Velodrome hosted the screening, during the San Sebastian Festival, of the documentary Esa ambición desmedida (Santos Bacana, Cris Trenas, Rogelio González), on the tour following the release of El Madrileño. La guitarra flamenca de Yerai Cortés is his directorial debut.​

Yerai Cortés
Musician

Yerai Cortés (Alicante, 1995) belongs to that new generation of artists who are taking flamenco to unknown and exciting territories. Despite his youth, he already has a vast career that has led him to collaborate with artists from the most diverse genres: from renovators and transgressors of flamenco, to musicians from different latitudes such as Judeline, Ralphie Choo or C. Tangana, whom he has accompanied on his now legendary tour Sin cantar ni afinar. With a proposal that looks to tradition and the future alike, Yerai Cortés arrives, always accompanied by his guitar, to disprove all the clichés surrounding flamenco and redefine its frontiers.
