De Fuego – Musical Meanderings 15th January 2012

I was fortunate to be joined by more wonderful musical guests in the studio on Sunday when Edina Balczo and Davide Lufrano Chaves, otherwise known as De Fuego were able to pop in. There was a great synchronicity in the timing of their visit as I met them back in July when they rocked at the Secret Garden Party, but hadn’t been in touch with them again until last week when I got in touch out of the blue and asked if they were still interested in coming on the radio to talk about and play some of their music. Fortunately Edina got back in touch straight away and asked if it was possible to come on the next Sunday, last weekend, especially as it was the weekend they were launching their new CD ‘Bluebird’!
It was a great conversation and a joy to see them perform their music in the studio. We heard about their musical backgrounds and discussed the similarity between flamenco guitar playing and metal, which prompted their recommendation of a song by ‘Flametal’ which I played on the show. Catch the listen again shortly:
