José del Calli

Biography

In 1990, in the heart of a family of artists, José Plantón Heredia, better known artistically as José Del Calli, was born. Son of the cantaor José Antonio Plantón Moreno, better known as “El Calli”, a prestigious cantaor from Córdoba. His family has a tablao in Córdoba called “La Bulería”, in which Jose has participated all his childhood and part of his adulthood. As a child he was a percussionist because he was too shy to sing, but later he lost his shyness, grew up and became one of the most professional singers among the young talents of flamenco. José decides to make his first presentation in Jóvenes Flamencos 2014 , and sings Soleá and Taranto winning the first prize of the contest.

Anecdote

People started asking him for pictures and asked him to dance and Jose danced so well that people didn’t doubt for a second the veracity of his story.
