Richard Peña

Hey, Don Rey!

Richard Peña is a composer and guitarist with a passion for setting the bar higher. With every release, he explores something new, giving a far-ranging voice to his creativity. Recently, he came out with a sizzling new album which stands out due to the artist’s nuanced and detail-oriented guitar phrasing.

However, Peña is far more than just an excellent guitar player. He is a music composer with a keen ear for creating beautiful songs. In fact, his tracks are all about making sure that every element falls into place to perfection, creating a gorgeous sense of the dynamics of the music. This record combines the colorful sophistication of Latin music with the classy, elegant, and understated tone associated with the best jazz.
