Alejandro Abad


Alejandro Antonio García Abad (born 22 September 1962 in Santiago, Chile), better known as Alejandro Abad, is a Spanish singer-songwriter and music producer, known for participating at the 1994 Eurovision Song Contest.

During the second half of the 1980s, Alejandro Abad released three albums in Spain: Quédate con él, Buscando tu destino and Confidencias, the latter with label PolyGram. Later on, he composed songs for several Spanish artists, including his friend Dyango.

Dyango entrusted Abad with the musical career of his son Marcos Llunas, whose first album was composed by Abad. Several songs from this album such as "Reconquistarte", "Hay algo en ti" or "Vale la pena" became hits in Latin America. In 1993 he composed the winning song of the OTI Festival held in Valencia, "Enamorarse", sung by Ana Reverte.

In 1994, he was internally chosen by broadcaster TVE to represent Spain as a solo artist at the 39th Eurovision Song Contest in Dublin with the self-penned song "Ella no es ella", and he recorded an homonym album, his fourth, with label Horus.

In 1995, he won the OTI Festival again as a songwriter in Asunción, Paraguay with the song "Eres mi debilidad", sung by Marcos Llunas.

Abad was invited to several Latin American countries to act as a jury member in international events. In 2000, he contributed with several songs to Raúl's album Sueño su boca, of which 600,000 copies were sold in Spain. He also participated in the production of Paulina Rubio's album Lo haré por ti, of which three million copies were sold worldwide.
