About Carlos Núñez

Carlos Núñez, born in 1971, is acclaimed as Galicia's foremost musical ambassador and a master of the gaita, the traditional Galician bagpipe. He began his remarkable musical journey at the age of eight, quickly honing his skills and earning comparisons to legendary musicians such as Jimi Hendrix for his virtuosity. Núñez’s international breakthrough came when, at just thirteen, he performed at the prestigious Lorient Celtic Festival in France. There, he forged a crucial friendship with Paddy Moloney of The Chieftains, sparking a lifelong collaboration that included the innovative *Treasure Island* soundtrack—one of the earliest successful fusions of Irish and Galician Celtic music.

A classically trained flautist from Madrid’s Royal Conservatory, Núñez has been pivotal in revitalizing Galician music, which suffered suppression during Franco’s regime. His dedication to cultural preservation and musical innovation is evident in his solo debut, *Brotherhood of Stars* (1996). Featuring over fifty acclaimed artists such as Sinéad O’Connor, Ry Cooder, and The Chieftains, the album became the first Celtic release to achieve platinum status in Spain. Núñez continued to expand Galician music’s horizons with *Os Amores Libres* (2000), collaborating with more than eighty musicians, weaving Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and North African influences into his Celtic roots.

Renowned both as a performer and scholar, Carlos Núñez continues to bridge cultures with his dynamic blend of tradition and contemporary artistry, solidifying his legacy as a vital voice in world music and Celtic heritage.
