José Moreno Justicia (1960 – 10 November 2024), better known as Pepe Justicia, was a Spanish flamenco guitarist from Bélmez de la Moraleda, Jaén. A concert player and teacher, he got into flamenco aged 14, inspired by Paco de Lucía.[1] His playing style is reminiscent of traditional flamenco from Jerez de la Frontera,[2] where he resides since 1987.
