Bienvenido a Calmenco!

Guitarists Tony Harmon , Ray Pannell , Nathan Towne and percussionist Johnny Sandoval are
internationally recognized performers whose performance credits include The White House, The Oscars, The Johnny Carson Show, Film & Television and more. Together they are Calmenco!

Calmenco! can be described as the "Riverdance" of guitar. Performing original compositions and popular melodies, they integrate them with the cool sounds of a jazz guitar, a fiery flamenco guitar, and a beautiful classical guitar. Their performances blend the musical genres of classical, Spanish, and Latin jazz music, along with the scintillating rhythm of a Latin percussionist. This is the unique sound of Calmenco!

When in concert Calmenco! plays a wide variety of music from traditional Classical concert guitar repertoire to Bossa Nova and popular music...and have even been known to do a little hoe down with tongue in cheek...One thing is certain, you will thoroughly enjoy listening to these guys perform.
