Biography
Dan Young and Lawson Rollins first crossed paths inside a flamenco guitar shop in Washington, D.C., during 1998, prompting an immediate creative partnership that fused core flamenco traditions with salsa, blues, Latin jazz, classical, and reggae. Public performances began only months afterward, and an audience formed with equal speed. The pair chose to cut a CD; Baja/TSR Records, a fledgling flamenco label, took notice within a week of its completion. They inked a deal in spring 2000 and issued their debut album, Salsa Flamenca, that summer. By autumn the recording had reached the Top 25 on Billboard’s new age chart. Their second album, Sevilla, followed in November 2001. Four years afterward Esperanza appeared, and in 2006 the duo delivered Mosaic, their fourth studio record.
