Bio and show schedule of flamenco guitarist Michael Pérez aka Miguelito

Coming from a family musicians and visual artists, Michael Pérez aka Miguelito went on to major in classical guitar performance at California State University, Fullerton. A year before graduating, he stumbled upon a flamenco party and fell instantly in love with the art form.

Literally the day after he received his Bachelor of Music Degree, Miguelito got on a plane and headed to Washington DC where he had a flamenco dance class accompanist job waiting for him at George Washington University.

As he played for dance classes for various teachers, recitals and concerts, word got around and before he knew it, Miguelito was playing for just about every flamenco dance company in the DC area including Danza del Río, Spanish Dance Society, Ana Martínez Flamenco Dance Company, Natalia Monteleón's Arte Flamenco, Ziva's Spanish Dance Ensemble and Furia Flamenca.

Since his arrival in the DC flamenco scene in 1991, Miguelito continues to perform with local flamenco dancers and singers every week at local clubs and restaurants and occasional theatre and festival performances. He most frequently works with flamenco dancers Ginette, Sarah Louisa and Sara Jerez.
