Miguel de Maria is a Spanish guitarist based in Tempe, AZ. He specializes in playing the solo guitar, a style where the melody and accompaniment are played at the same time, without the help of other musicians. He studied classical guitar throughout his childhood; and studied flamenco in Seville, Spain as well as with some of the best players in Phoenix. Miguel plays over 100 dates a year in the Phoenix metropolitan area, at live music venues, corporate events, and has the honor for playing in many wedding ceremonies. He has performed at El Pedregal’s Wine and Jazz festival, the Scottsdale A’Faire, and the Botanical Garden’s Noche de Las Luminarias and nearly every major resort in town, such as the Phoenician, the Princess, the Boulders, the Four Seasons, Montelucia, and the Royal Palms.
