Ojos de Brujo is a nine-piece band from Barcelona, Spain, who describe their style as "jipjop flamenkillo". The band sold over 100,000 copies of their self-produced Barà album, and has received several awards, among these the BBC Radio 3 World Music Award for Europe in 2004.
Their success is also notable for being achieved without the aid of label backing; they set up their own label, La Fábrica de Colores, to get complete artistic freedom for BarÃ, away from the pressure they perceived from their record company Edel Records for their debut Vengue.
