In 2012 he was a star act in the Global Village Festival Dubai, and Jesus was introduced to thousands of listeners around the country via Virgin Radio (Dubai 92).

He also presented “Quejíos Negros” in the Flamenco festival in Lima (Perú) participating with great Peruvian artists like Leo Amaya & Ernesto Hermoza.
During 2014, 2017 & 2018 worked in Australia with Diana Reyes and performed as the guest artist in The Great Southern Tour in the pacific with Marina Tamayo in more than a dozen venues across Australia, New Zealand, Tasmania and Fiji Island.
in 2019 & 2020 Jesus travelled to Beijing and Shanghai (China) as a flamenco teacher, choreographer and dancer with the company Casa Flamenco Beijing. During the same year Jesus is interviewed by BBC South East moments before his performance at Kino Teatr in St Leonards on Sea (UK) .
Jesus is currently immersed in Spanish Accents project, a Jazz-Flamenco fusion band led by Alec Dankworth.
Flamenco was the traditional dance and music of the Andalusian gitanos (gypsies). Even though flamenco is still deeply connected to the gypsy culture, many payos (non-gypsies) have contributed to expand it both in Spain and overseas.
The history of flamenco date back from the 18th century. It’s said to emerge in the occidental area of Andalucía (Seville, Cordoba, Huelva). Unfortunately, the available resources and data are very limited and enforce just a few theories.
Flamenco can be expressed by either:
Singing. A cantaor sing with his (or her) heart and soul.
Dancing. Elegance and grace are only meant to the best bailaores and bailaoras. You’ll see their rhythm in their arms, feet and whole body.
Playing the Spanish guitar. The performer relies on its intuition to improvise rather than applying this or that technique. He (it’s very rare to see a woman) needs to blend with the rest of the cuadro.
