Artist Info: El Indio Gitano

This cantaor (flamenco singer) is Bernardo Silva Carrasco, originally known as el Moro, but later, as el Indio Gitano. El Indio Gitano is one of the greatest Flamenco singers that has less publicity than he deserves. His 'soníos negros' (black sounds) in soleá and seguiriya singing stand out in his oeuvre.
