Over the course of a dozen years and numerous bestselling albums, the virtuoso flamenco guitarist has explored the outer limits of popular music, breaking new ground with each successive recording. In the past, Cook has blended African percussion, Cajun accordion, classical cello and pop flamenco style to create a thrilling, multi-textured global hybrid. And he's travelled far afield - from London to Cairo - to collaborate with some of the world's best musicians. For Frontiers, his seventh studio album, Cook and his wife moved to Seville, Spain to be a part of the mecca of the flamenco music scene with astounding results. Since his career began, Cook has sold more than one million albums worldwide and won a Juno award.
