Mano de Dios

Jackson Scott has played guitar since he could stand upright. In 2007 he met Cuban bass player Jimmy Martinez and Roberto Ares, who had recently returned from studying percussion in Brazil. Together they formed ‘Mano de Dios’ - a pun on Maradona’s famous excuse – joined later by Sky Murphy, playing guitar and trombone. The result is a unique and rugged blend of flamenco, punk, samba, rockabilly and rumba.

Eclectic by nature, Mano have played everywhere from The Secret Garden Party and Glastonbury to the Guggenheim museum and the Royal Courts of Justice.
