The Lotus Fire is a Sarasota, Florida-based Nuevo Flamenco, Gypsy Swing and Blues group.
They draw inspiration from the influences of Piazzolla, Grappelli, de Lucia, Ojos de Brujo, Yasmin Levy, and Etta James. They have played to wildly enthusiastic crowds throughout Europe, Latin and North America in clubs, festivals, casinos, resorts, including the President of the United States.
In addition to performing around Florida, The Lotus Fire did a recent
European tour playing cafes and festivals in France, Spain, Holland and England.
The musicianship in the group is off-the-charts. These guys have monster chops! Arielleh McManus covers the full vocal range from Latin to Blues. Ari sings in Spanish, English and French! She is both a lyricist and singer extraordinaire and those incredible skills are are showcased on the new album Come Out Swinging.
