This year Carlos Nuñez celebrates his 25th anniversary of the release of the album A Irmandade da Estrela with artists such as Paddy Molowny from The Chieftains, Davy Spillane from Moving Hearts, and Lenny White from Return to Forever.
Carlos Núñez was born in Galicia, Spain, into a family of musicians. His father, Xosé Manuel Núñez, is a well-known Galician bagpiper, and his mother, Maruxa, a singer. His older brother, Xurxo, is a multi-instrumentalist who has collaborated with Carlos on many of his recordings.
Núñez began his musical training on the bagpipes and the guitar, but he soon added the flute, the mandolin, and the bouzouki to his repertoire. He also developed a strong interest in traditional Irish and Scottish music, and in the early 1990s he began to tour extensively with The Chieftains.
Núñez's solo career took off in 1995 with the release of the album A Irmandade da Estrela. The album was a collaboration with some of the leading figures in the Irish and Scottish music scenes, including Paddy Molowny from The Chieftains, Davy Spillane from Moving Hearts, and Lenny White from Return to Forever.
A Irmandade da Estrela was a critical and commercial success, and it helped to introduce Núñez's music to a wider audience. Over the years he has released a number of other solo albums, including O Son Do Ar (1998), Os Amores Libres (2002), and O País Dos Balcáns (2008).
Núñez has also collaborated extensively with other artists, including The Chieftains, Ry Cooder, The Dubliners, The Waterboys, and Emmylou Harris. In 2013 he was awarded a Grammy for his work on the album Celtic Thunder - Heritage.
To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the release of A Irmandade da Estrela, Núñez is embarking on a world tour with some of the artists who contributed to the album, including Paddy Molowny, Davy Spillane, and Lenny White. The tour will visit North America, Europe, and Asia, and it will culminate with a performance at the Celtic Connections festival in Glasgow, Scotland.
