Evan Christian's commitment to mastering the flamenco guitar is so
great that he moved to Spain to study the craft. That's not to say that his
playing is completely grounded in traditional flamenco, however. In the
studio, he pairs his flamenco guitar riffs with smooth, hip-hop-inflected
neo-soul and synthesized, peppy funk in the vein of Prince. Tonight he plays
his regular Monday night gig at the Jazz Estate at 10 p.m.
