Marcos Coll

Marcos Coll生於1976年，出生於西班牙馬德里，但很快與家人搬到了西班牙西北部加利西亞地區的聖地亞哥-德孔波斯特拉。他在13歲時開始演奏口琴，受到他的音樂家叔叔和西班牙布魯斯口琴傳奇人物Ñaco Goñi的影響。在與不同的業餘樂隊，如Red Bues Band一起演奏後，他組建了自己的第一支專業樂隊Bluerags。1999年，Coll回到馬德里加入了當時西班牙最著名的布魯斯樂隊Tonky Blues Band。在這支樂隊中，21歲的他有機會與搖滾和布魯斯傳奇人物如米克·泰勒（滾石樂隊）、巴迪·邁爾斯（吉米·亨德里克斯的Band of Gypsys）一起巡演和錄音，甚至與湯姆·瓊斯（Tom Jones）一起演出布魯斯！

在那些豐富經歷的年代過後，Coll準備與他的靈魂兄弟Adrian Costa一起組建自己的樂隊Los Reyes del KO。Los Reyes del KO（直譯為“淘汰王”）很快成為西班牙和歐洲最頂尖的布魯斯樂隊之一，贏得了獎項和認可，與諸如巴迪·蓋伊、約翰尼·溫特、查克·貝里、約翰·梅爾、所羅門·伯克、動物樂隊、羅伯特·克雷等偉人共同演出，甚至出現在加利西亞的高中音樂教科書中。

作為世界著名的德國樂器製造商Hohner的代言人，Coll於2009年和2013年在德國特羅辛根舉行的最負盛名的口琴節“世界口琴節”上演出、主持工作坊並擔任評委。如今，除了以Marcos Coll Blues Jarana的身份演出外，他還經常與傳奇布魯斯樂手Guitar Crusher合作，以及與他的墨西哥拉丁音樂樂隊Los Mighty Calacas合作，該樂隊已在全球巡演並發行了一張CD，其中還有Charlie Musselwhite等頂尖客座音樂家。除了與Los Reyes del KO、Los Mighty Calacas和其他合作作品的唱片之外，Coll的雙專輯CD《Under the Wings》也值得關注，它融合了古典布魯斯和更現代的放克、拉丁和嘻哈音樂，回顧了20年的音樂生涯，包括與巴迪·邁爾斯、米克·泰勒、亞倫·伯頓等傳奇人物的錄音。Coll已經在他在歐洲、美洲、亞洲和非洲的巡演中演出《Under the Wings》。

Marcos Coll

Marcos Coll was born Madrid (Spain) in 1976 but soon moved with his family to Santiago de Compostela, in the northwestern Spanish region of Galicia. He started playing the harmonica at the age of 13, influenced by his musician uncle and by Spanish blues harp legend Ñaco Goñi. After playing with different amateur bands, such as the Red Bues Band, he formed his first professional band called Bluerags. In 1999 Coll moved back to Madrid to join the most famous Spanish blues band at that time, Tonky Blues Band. With this band, at the age of 21 he had the opportunity of touring and recording with rock and blues legends like Mick Taylor (Rolling Stones ) or Buddy Miles (Jimmy Hendrix Band of Gypsys) and even did a blues gig with Tom Jones!

After those years of great experiences, Coll was ready to form his own band, Los Reyes del KO, along with his soul brother, Adrian Costa. Los Reyes del KO (literally, The Knockout Kings) soon became one of the top blues bands in Spain and Europe, earning awards and recognition, sharing bills around the world with such all-time greats as Buddy Guy, Johnny Winter, Chuck Berry, John Mayall, Solomon Burke, the Animals, Robert Cray and the Fabulous Thunderbirds, and even appearing in high school music textbooks in Galicia.

As an endorser of the world famous German musical instrument manufacturer Hohner, in 2009 and 2013 Coll performed, conducted a workshop, and was part of the jury at the most prestigious harmonica festival, the World Harmonica Festival, held every four years in Trossingen, Germany. Nowadays, besides performing as Marcos Coll Blues Jarana, he also works often with the legendary bluesman Guitar Crusher, as well as with his Mexican Latino music band Los Mighty Calacas, which has toured all over the world and has released a CD featuring such top guest musicians as Charlie Musselwhite. Besides the discography with Los Reyes del KO, Los Mighty Calacas and other collaborations, particular attention should be paid to Coll’s double album CD "Under the Wings,” a mixture of old classic blues and more modern funk, Latin and hip hop, which looks back over a 20-year career and includes recordings with such legends as Buddy Miles, Mick Taylor, Aaron Burton, etc. Coll has presented “Under the Wings” on his tours of Europe, America, Asia and Africa.

In 2009, at the World Harmonica Festival (WHF) in Germany, he achieved a historic milestone by winning dual championships in "Jazz Chromatic Harmonica" and "Blues/Rock/Folk/Country Diatonic Harmonica," becoming the first person in Asian history to accomplish such a feat. In 2013, he further solidified his position by winning the world championship in the trio category as the lead player of the chromatic harmonica.
