Gipsy Kings
Gipsy Kings (originally Los Reyes) are a musical group founded in 1978 in Arles and Montpellier France of musicians with Catalan heritage. Their music touches on Catalan rumba, flamenco, salsa, and pop genres. They perform mostly in Catalan but also mix in Spanish with southern French dialects.Although the group members were born in France, their parents were mostly gitanos (Spanish Romani), who fled Spain during the 1930s Spanish Civil War. They are known for bringing rumba flamenca, a pop-oriented music distantly derived from traditional flamenco and rumba genres, to a worldwide audience, and for their interpretations of English-language pop hits.
