JUANELO
Juan 'Juanelo' was born in 1998 in Los Palacios and Villafranca, Seville, and is the descendant of a family of flamenco singers.

His singing is austere, sober and deeply orthodox, while his mirror is always the singing of Utrera, Lebrija and Morón, from which his singing idols originate. At his young age, he was already requested by great figures of flamenco such as José Galván, Salvador Távora, Pastora Galván and María Pages, among many others. Between 2016 and 2017 he was forged for a year at La Carbonera in Seville and in recent years has shared the stage with artists such as Enrique el Extremeño, Antonio Moya, Mari Peña, Miguel Ortega, José Galván, Cristina Hoyos, Pepa Montes and Ricardo Miño, among others.
