Felipe Maya

Felipe Maya, from Madrid, was born into a family of guitarists (Jerónimo Maya and Felipe Maya), where the artistic influence was already established. As a child he liked the sounds generated by the blows and felt that his path was percussion.

When David Jiménez and Laura Abadía met him for the first time, they saw something in Felipe that he didn’t know he had, his innate talent for playing. At the age of 15, Laura used to play in his ear so that he could learn to keep the rhythm. Later, Felipe joined the company of the dancer Curro de Candela and together they were part of “Afrogitano”, a piece that speaks of universal human emotions and dialogues through dance without ever losing the strength and elegance of flamenco. Today, Felipe sings in Cardamomo with the best artists, and he stresses that sharing the stage with “Farruquito” and “Joselillo Romero” is like an impressive feeling that cannot be explained in words. For the percussionist it is very important to be in peace with yourself and to ensure that his music generates a great connection with the rest of the artists and the audience present.

What they say about us

“This was way above and beyond my expectations! Loved the venue and the open sangria bar with the last show! They have a great venue and it’s very exciting to watch the amazing flamenco dancers do their magic!!”

“Our first flamencoshow, and we were really blown away! Very intense and fascinating. We highly recommend it. A small, intimate place with very friendly staff. We only had drinks, but the food looked really nice.”

“Qué espectáculo. España en estado puro. No se lo pierdan. La pasión que desprenden los bailarines es exactamente lo que uno espera de un show de flamenco. Me sorprendió el lugar. Pensaba que el flamenco sólo era de Andalucía y no es así. Visítenlo.”

Live music is thriving in Madrid, from classical and opera to blues, rock and jazz, but the speciality is flamenco. It may seem odd that the music of the south is so important up here, but there are two reasons for that: first, a lot of Andalusians have made their homes here, and second, any flamenco artist worth his salt wants to play the big tablaos — dinner shows — in el capital. Cardamomo is the real deal, catering to a crowd that knows its bulerias from its soleas. There are three sessions a night, at 6pm, 8pm and 10pm, and, obviously, you’ll go to the latter.
