About the artists

Siempre Así
Siempre Así is a vocal group from Seville with over three decades of history, during which time they have sold around one million records and performed concerts all over Spain and Latin America. Their music is pop‑flamenco and pop with influences of rumba and Andalusian folk music, characterised by vocal harmonies and rhythms that reflect the musical tradition of southern Spain.

The group was formed by a group of eight youngsters who were part of the choir of the brotherhood of El Rocío de Triana and boasts powerful vocals with half of its members being singers! They chose their name (which means ‘always like this’ in English) to symbolise that, no matter what happened, the group would always remain united. Throughout their career the group has performed for numerous celebrities and figures such as the Duchess of Alba for her third wedding in Seville in 2011. In 2023, the group received the medal of Andalucía for their contribution to Spanish music and culture. Their Sevillan flamenco roots shine through in their music, having made them a staple in Spanish popular music for more than 25 years.

Luna Gitana
Opening the festival with an exclusive monographic night dedicated to pure duende and gypsy heritage, Luna Gitana is a specially assembled star-studded flamenco collective featuring some of Andalusia’s most revered traditional and contemporary performers. The lineup brings together legendary Jerez rhythm-masters Diego Carrasco and Tomasito, alongside powerhouse vocalists and artists including Navajita Plateá, Mara Rey, Joselete, Samara Amaya, Junkera Fernández, Junkerita, Curro, and Rafael Graviela. Embodying the authentic spirit of an impromptu Andalusian juerga, this ensemble blends complex bulería rhythms, deep cante jondo, and contemporary flamenco flair against the backdrop of the Mediterranean.

La Cuarta Cuerda & Los Alpresa
Bringing together two generations of Sevillano festive music, this collaborative showcase pairs modern rumba-flamenco innovators La Cuarta Cuerda with veteran Seville performers Los Alpresa. Formed in Seville, La Cuarta Cuerda has built a loyal following by reimagining popular classic tracks and original compositions through vibrant, modern rumba arrangements. They share the stage with Los Alpresa, a legendary group of brothers whose spontaneous, high-energy flamenco-pop and infectious stage charisma have made them a beloved fixture of Andalusian celebrations for decades.

Malmö 040
Representing the contemporary indie branch of the festival’s genre-spanning lineup, Malmö 040 is a five-piece pop-rock group formed in Barcelona in 2017. Known for their melodic hooks, acoustic guitar foundations, and energetic live shows, the band has achieved significant national acclaim with releases like their album Cuando éramos felices sin saberlo and popular singles including Inmortal and Por ti por mí. Their inclusion highlights Enclave de Sol's evolution into a versatile Mediterranean festival that complements traditional flamenco roots with modern Spanish indie sounds.

Soto & Family
Closing out the festival’s August series, Soto & Family brings a deeply personal celebration of Sevillano musical heritage to the stage. Spearheaded by celebrated songwriter and performer José Manuel Soto alongside his musically accomplished children (including singer-songwriters Marcos and Jaime Soto), the family ensemble delivers a rich repertoire of classic Andalusian ballads, festive rumbas, and timeless melodies. Their intimate performance combines multi-generational artistry with the laid-back elegance of coastal Sotogrande.
