Paul Morocco and OLE

Paul Morocco and Ole are without doubt extremely skilled maniacs.

The light breaks its way through the fog, like the dawn above an Andalusian field.

Suspense and drama grips the audience as these three Latin machos are ready to cock their guitars and attack their audience with surprise and excitement.

Paul Morocco, Marcial Heredia and Guillermo de Endaya perform together in one of the most unpredictable, zany and spectacular shows. It’s a wonderful celebration of music and comedy full of surreal invention and fun.

Virtuoso guitar, pop musical parodies, spitting ping pong balls, juggling fruits and eggs thrown by the audience, lightning speed flamenco dance, and fire coming from the guitars and hands, and feet – the loco foreign gypsy banditos whips the audience into an emotional frenzy.

Olé has all the exhilarating sounds from the rhythms of flamenco to salsa, swing, blues, jazz and pop.

3 Latin machos, full of fire, fight for their pride while playing, spinning and throwing their Spanish guitars, wild and wonderful, formidable musical and comedy skills. They take the audience on a journey ending in a ‘grande fiesta’ !!!
