Fonque Nouveau – 'Vallenato' (Live from Hidden Gem)

FONQUE NOUVEAU, the brainchild of the Colombian-Dutch guitarist Ronny deCarlo, is about a fresh & soulful sound, combining the adventure of jazz with the bombastic beat of Hip-Hop, blending raw liveband energy with a futuristic and cinematic sound. FONQUE stands for roots in Funk, Jazz & Soul music, NOUVEAU for a Next Gen sound with influences from contemporary styles and modern production techniques. In 2024 Ronny and his crew released their self-titled debut album after winning 'Keep an Eye: The Records', a prize by the Amsterdamse Hogeschool van de Kunsten. This earned them a tour through Dutch festivals, raving reviews and an Edison nomination.
