Josep-Manel Vega

Unortodox self-made guitarist, composer and improviser. Contemporary jazz musician in his own way.

Exceeds in originality the usual average of our musical scene in general and the jazz one specifically. - Miquel Jurado (El País)

Instead of playing the instrument, he caresses it with a unique and personal dexterity. What was experienced, felt and enjoyed becomes unforgettable. - Andrés Rodríguez (La Mañana)

Progressive music against the tide. - Jordi Bianciotto (El Periódico)

A brave and precious project. - Pau Benavent (Vilaweb)

Presents an original production, built from an eclectic musical background, which is explored in several formats (solo, duo, trio, group and orchestra, and also playing acoustic on Spanish guitar). A personal musical language focused on improvisation, inspired by musicians such as Keith Jarret, Bill Frisell, Ralph Towner, Nguyên Lê , "high-risk" rock bands such as King Crimson or unconventional proposals such as The Bad Plus.
