Los Dramaticos perform stunning arrangements of songs and instrumental pieces from around Latin America and Spain.

Their sound is a fusion of the Flamenco and Andean traditions. This reflects their heritage: Victor is a gifted charango player from Valparaíso in Chile. Paddy is one of the most accomplished flamenco guitarists in Ireland and the UK, whose artistic path developed over many years in Granada, Andalucia.

The new 2026 show combines a joyful, exciting and unique blend of Latin American and Andalusian musical flavours with compelling and humorous storytelling. It’s an unmissable opportunity to be transported to those sun-kissed lands, their people, their infectious passion and their zest for life.

 Outstanding playing! A recital of classics and original compositions that are by turn uplifting, stirring and humorous, contextualised with surprising and funny stories. It’s sizzling good fun. Bernard McKeown, The Daily Mirror 

 If you can’t go on holiday this year, go and see Los Dramaticos! Kathy Clugston, The Ticket, BBC Radio Ulster 

 Los Dramáticos have captured the imagination with their infectious passion and global outlook, their entertaining musical approach and their incredible musicianship. Linley Hamilton, Jazz World, BBC Radio Ulster 

 When I hear Los Dramáticos, I’m transported to another joyful world, of warm, southern climes, a world of exhilaration, of life-giving energies. Their compelling musicianship, effortlessly fused in a masterful combination of flamenco guitar and 10-string charango, lingers long in the heart after the final notes are sounded. Neil Martin, composer
