Biography

David Regueiro, with more than fifteen albums under his belt, is one of the most outstanding gypsy jazz guitarists in Spain.

Together with his trio, he released, in 2020, “Areal”, an album consisting of nine compositions of his own rooted in the jazz manouche style, the aesthetic movement created by Django Reinhardt, without overlooking other of his influences: American swing and be-bop. The trio brings a rigorous and respectful approach to tradition that is, at the same time, fresh and innovative.

In 2021 he launched “O CAMIÑO”, a new album made entirely of original tunes on which he is accompanied by Pablo Castaño ( sax), Alfonso Calvo (double bass) and Sergio González (drums). In this new recording, he explores other jazz trends and styles inspired by Galician music, taking the career of this outstanding guitarist a step further. All the music in this new album was performed on the “Maruxa” guitar, a piece designed and built especially for this project by the luthier Carlos Sabrafén.

In 2023 he will be releasing “PERFECT MATCH!”, featuring original compositions and arrangements, with his trio and ALEXANDRE CAVALIERE, the leading violinist in this style at an international scale. This recording shows Regueiro’s compositional maturity and a markedly original voice of his own within jazz manouche.

David Regueiro studied Guitar, Music Education, History and Music Sciences in different conservatories (Ourense, Salamanca and A Coruña) and universities (Complutense de Madrid, Salamanca and Royal Holloway in London). He has also been taught by some of the most internationally renowned musicians: Samson Schmitt, Brady Winterstein, Mozes Rosenberg, Adrien Moignard, Joaquín Chacón, Abe Rábade, Paco Charlin, Albert Sanz, Peter Bernstein, Logan Richardson, Steve Brown, Philip Catherine, etc.

He has performed in Portugal, Germany, United Kingdom, France and the Netherlands, as well as in the most important concert halls and festivals in Spain.
