Pipo Romero is a composer and acoustic guitarist from Cádiz, Spain. His compositions come from the heart blending an original compendium of styles (folk, flamenco, classical, country, celtic music, tango and more).. His original and unprecedented approach to his music and his instrument has made him one of the most relevant artists in the world of acoustic guitar, and has led him to perform in numerous international forums (Spain, Canada, USA, Italy, Portugal, Hungary, Korea) over the years with his first two albums.
IKIGAI is the new album of Pipo Romero that represents (as the Japanese concept itself means): the artist's reason for being and personal motivation through his own work, a north, a sense of life. His third album, is an ode to Spanish folklore and its crossover with Atlantic folks, but composed and performed on a steel-string guitar instead of the traditional Spanish guitar. Full of colors and nuances, from the purest and most authentic roots of his land but with an open heart towards other times and cultures.
