In this journey through the universe of Poveda, we discover through his latest songs his love for flamenco, poetry, and Andalusian folk music. His charisma, social commitment, and passion on the stage bring to his concerts a unique experience of love, art, and emotion. Flamenco music cannot be understood without Miguel Poveda. His amazing voice and the way he performs his songs, join together the old with the new wave of flamenco. Throughout these 30 years, Miguel Poveda has matured with elegance and his songs along with him.With more than 14 albums and awards such as the 2007 Spanish National Music Award, the 2011 Culture Music Award of Catalonia, the 2012 Andalusian Medal, Miguel Poveda has built his career with a mix of love for the past and creative risk-taking in the present, always inspired by the very best talents in music.
