About Me

Originally from Barcelona, Demi moved to the UK in 1998 to pursue his lifelong ambition of becoming a professional musician. Since graduating from the London College of Music, Demi has worked as a freelance drummer and percussionist, specialising in flamenco and latin music. He performs regularly with a number of artists (Alec Dankworth, Rafael de Utrera, Carl Herring, Andres Garcia, Rafael and Friends, Pete Tong, Nicolas Meier, Mor Karbasi ), groups (La Xula,Tempo Dos, Prensa o Palique, The Escorts ) and flamenco dance companies (La Tipica, Carambita, Sumaya), with music ranging from the traditional to the more experimental. He is well used to fusing flamenco/latin styles with many other genres, including jazz and pop. Demi has played in venues such as the Royal Albert Hall, Royal Festival Hall, Sadlers Wells, Jazz Cafe, Barbican, and at Womad and Glastonbury Music Festivals. He has also toured all over Europe and in Morocco.
