Niño de Elche is a Spanish musician and perfomer. Trained as a cantaor or flamenco singer, his practice moved away from the traditional flamenco sphere and into contemporary practice. He combines his music recordings –Voces del extremo (2015) and Antología del cante flamenco heterodoxo (2018) are two of his most remarkable albums– with performing arts collaborations with artist such as Angélica Liddell and Israel Galván. His heterodox artistic interests made him participate in the Documenta 14 in Kassel as well as collaborate with singer C. Tangana with whom he released the song Un veneno. He is now working on his next album Colombiana to be released in May 2019.
