Fernandez.

Francisco Fernandez Vargas, “Paco Fernandez”, was born in 1967 in Triana, in the heart of one of the most prestigious families in the world of flamenco.The legacy of his father, Curro Fernandez, and his mother, Pepa Vargas, marked Paco and his brothers, Jose and Esperanza, in the most pure Gypsy style.

With this background, not surprisingly, he began his artistic journey at a very early age. At the age of eight he starts to play the guitar and received his first lessons from the master Rafael Amador, a component of the group “Pata Negra”. Later he continues his apprenticeship with the master of the guitar Miguel Perez. At the age of twelve he officially debuted alongside his siblings Esperanza and Jose Fernandez in the Alvarez Quintero Theater in Seville, forming the “Gypsy Gang.” The following year his parents, Pepa Fernandez Curro Vargas, alongside with the major representative Jose Antonio Pulpón, had a great idea to form one of the most recognized flamenco families from the national level, “La Familia Fernandez”. With this formation they happily spent eight years in the best festivals in Spain and represented numerous performances and tours in America, Europe, Japan, India and represented Spain at the popular “World Meeting of Gypsy’s.”

Paco Fernandez has performed with leading figures such as Camarón de la Isla, Antonio Núñez “Chocolate”, Farruco, Rocio Jurado, Fosforito, Juanito Villar, Potito, Duquende, Diego Carrasco, Antonio Canales, Remedios Amaya, La Susi, Juanita Reina, Aurora Vargas and many more.
