Biography
For Pablo Alborán, music was always part of his life, learning to play flamenco and classical guitar from a young age and was composing his own songs from the age of 12. Having played at local bars as part of a flamenco band, Alborán soon decided to record a solo demo, choosing a cover of Diana Navarro's "Deja de Volverme Loca." The song caught the interest of Navarro, who became mentor to the young Alborán.
Releasing recordings of his compositions on YouTube, Alborán helped build anticipation for his debut album, with Destiny's Child star, Kelly Rowland, touting Navarro as a serious talent. The self-titled debut album arrived in February 2011, finding immediate success in Spain, topping the charts. The runaway success of Alborán's debut brought him three Latin Grammy Award nominations, as well as being certified 6x Platinum. An acoustic album, "En Acústico," followed in November 2011, with these intimate offerings peaking at the top spot of the Spanish and Portuguese charts.
Alborán's commercial and chart success continued with his following efforts, topping the Spanish charts again with 2012's "Tanto" and 2014's "Terral." WIth his third release, Alborán had also found fans in the US, reaching the top spot of the US Latin Pop charts. In Portugal, it was also warmly received, peaking at number two. Topping the charts in Spain with every release of his career, Alborán is one of the most successful Spanish artists to have appeared since 2010.
Live reviews
Pablo Alborán is one of Spain's most exciting new artists to emerge in many years. Many people begun to pay attention following the release of his eponymous album which topped charts, the first new artist debut to do so since 1998. Since then the demand to see the spritely singer perform live has increased dramatically and Pablo's stages are growing in size at an equally rapid pace.
He has been progressively joined by more and more musicians which add further richness to his latino sounds however at the centre of the entire operation is that undeniable vocal with both power and sensitivity. It can be upbeat and endearing within the space of two tracks and switches easily. He has followed up his chart topping debut with two more number one albums so the setlist is packed with popular material and the crowd cheers the singer on as he runs through his own hand selection. He brings the whole crowd together for a mass singalong to 'El Beso' before leaving the stage in high spirits.
Pablo, desde el año 2011 te escucho...es asi, primero conoci tu voz y tu música pero "sin rostro", no sabia quien eras y cuando preguntaba a quienes tenia cerca cuidandome sobre "el chico que canta Solamente Tu", nadie sabia responder. Fue a partir de un martes por la madrugada de ese año, luego de sufrir un gravísimo accidente. Hoy gracias a Dios, puedo volver a moverme con algo de independencia a pesar de mi paralisis; y en el 2015 PUDE disfrutar de verte en el escenario de Buenos Aires, donde tan solo pude acercarte (a través de un compañero tuyo), una pequeñita piedra aguamarina...como símbolo y expresión de cariño.
Un deseo: un dia poderte ver en vivo, mas de cerca. Exitos (que ya los tienes), que esto recién comienza!!! Abrazo desde Argentina
El concierto estuvo fenomenal y sin palabras desde que comenzó hasta que terminó.
La entrega de Pablo a su público es total y la pasión con la que canta cada una de sus canciones es increíble, ya que se nota en cada verso que coloca el alma ante sus espectadores.
Un deleite para aquellos que siguen día a día su crecimiento profesional y que le agradan sus canciones.
El juego de luces en conjunto con el cumplimiento de cada canción fue único.
It was the best concert I've ever seen, literally, those two hours were the most joyful and emotional two hours in my whole life, I couldn't be happier . Pablo spreads passion, love and energy by his presence, his voice and his smile. He really can take you to saturn and to paradise. I'd repeat this experience for a million time if I got the chance to do it. Pablooo I love you to the moon and back.
This was my first Pablo Alboran´s concert and I believe he is a truly artist, the production is amazing, his music and performance was incredible. Overall I enjoyed the show very much!
His music is an inspiration for me and helped me to face my Cancer´s treatment last year. For this reason, his concert had a special meaning to me.
Amazing show! Such a wonderful evening with lots of love, passion , joy and mixed emotions. I was thrilled by the live performance. Songs like “Pasos de cero”, “Saturno” or “Miedo” were just unbelievable! Pablo and his band are such amazing performers! 100% recommended!
This concert was just amazing I loved it!! The space was small enough to hear his every note but big enough to not feel like other fans were breathing on my shoulder. His performance and singing was so captivating I remembered why it was that I enjoy listening to his music.
Very very beautiful concert. All the feelings in the right place, powerful voice and the duo with Carminho was just something to emotionally cry for.
He started with Terral then went to older songs, all very well played and he performed a giant concert, which I loved.
