Oscar Peñas

Jazz Guitarist, Oscar Peñas uses his unique skills to arrange, produce, and perform his compositions in many of the best venues in the USA. His unique blending of two genres that seem antagonistic jazz and classical along with the usage of non-traditional instrumentation in either style outlines the sounds of the history that inspires his work. Traditional popular folk music from different cultures and sounds from his Iberian heritage meld with an American jazz base. Peñas most often performs his work as the leader of different small jazz ensembles. Peñas creates extraordinary musical experiences that enrich lives and empower individuals through collaboration, innovation, and a passion for artistic excellence. His intuition and ear drive him to an amalgam of melodies that aims for the unexpected and merges multiple styles of music that do not cohere to a single signature style. “
