The second episode of my new podcast Marbella Life features the talented Quike Navarro, who fell in love with the sunny coast 15 years ago. Born in the north of spain, Quike has made a successful career here as a violinist. With his electric violin, laser bow, and unlimited energy, he puts on a show that will blow you away. Sponsored by Yamaha, Quike is a first-class musician and masters the violin like no other. He has played on some of the best venues and stages internationally, and has performed also for celebrities such as Tiesto and Antonio Banderas to name a few. But how hard is it to make a living as an artist especially in a seasonal town such as Marbella? And what is Quike’s life like off the stage? Find out more as I sit down with Quike at the lovely Tikitano restaurant. Follow Quike also on all social media channels - @quikenavarro.
