Craziest thing that happened on tour?
Back in 2023, when we launched the first album 'Contra Todo Pronóstico', one of the very first shows was in Berlin. Those days I was really afraid of flying, but we planned to travel by plane to Berlin from BCN to make this show. We had already boarded, plane started moving, on its way to the take-off runway and I started to panic so much that we had to stop the plane, so I could get out of the plane. The very first moment I touched land I said to my tour manager: "OK, now I'm fine, let's rent a car and we go straight to Berlin". Even though it took us 15h, I arrived on time to make a line-check and play the show.
Which song of your own means the most to you and why?
Very difficult to say, depends on the moment. Right now I would say "Contra Todo Pronóstico", "Cantaré" or "Niño". These songs touch me when I sing or hear them at the moment.
What did you want to be when you were little?
I wanted to be painter, singer and actress at the same time.
