The Transatlantic Cul De Sac

Reaching for Duende: A Chat with Rafael Lloyd Iglesias


Listen Later

Ned and Paul are joined by world-class flamenco guitarist and composer Rafael Lloyd Iglesias for a rich discussion about the origins and history of flamenco, the musical magic that happens after the show, how a multicultural upbringing (and an early love for new romantic bands) informs his own approach to composing, working through otosclerosis (and the inspiration that comes from being able to hear again) and takeaways from time spent in the company of Paco de Lucía. Oh and also teaching Radiohead guitarist Ed O'Brien how to play flamenco.
