After a hugely successful debut at the Ellington in late 2024, Duende Indalo are back with two big sets, premiering new music in the lead up to the release of their new album later this year.
Inspired by the likes of Dhafer Youssef, Antonio Forcione and bass guitar mastery reminiscent of Jaco Pastorius, instrumental genre crossing musicians Duende Indalo play an eclectic mix of world music fusing together Flamenco, Jazz, Middle Eastern, Latin and ambient sounds to create something wholly unique. Duende Indalo play with virtuosic rigour to create music that will transport you to every corner of the globe.
Featuring the like of legendary bassist and Ellington favourites Roy Martinez (Gina Williams, Hank Marvin, Dave Man Collective, Natalie Gillespie), virtuosic jazz drummer Greg Brenton (Steve Hensby Band, Mace Francis Orchestra), classical guitarist maestro Karl Hiller (Odette Mercy and Her Soul Atomics, Grace Barbe-Afro Kreol, Soukouss Internationale), multi-instrumentalist Tony Borthwick on soprano and tenor saxophone, flute and bansuri and Indian classically trained tabla player and percussionist Pavin Hari, Duende Indalo create music that is both soulful and expressive and yet masterfully technical and musically refined.
Gearing up for the release of their sophomore album later this year, Duende Indalo are mystifying audiences in sold out venues with their beautifully crafted and unforgettable performances.
