How has your summer been so far?

It’s been all about family and songwriting. I recently released a song called ¿Para qué más? (What More Could I Ask For?), which will be the first track from a completely new project. I can’t reveal exactly what it is yet, although people are already starting to get an idea. It will be closely connected to Ibiza, my roots, what the island is really like and the things people don’t always see. This summer is all about finishing that project, especially the writing and composition, and spending time with my family.

So, should we expect an album?

I don’t know if it’ll be an album, but something along those lines. I can’t reveal anything just yet, but whatever I release will have a distinctly Ibizan feel – it’s island-inspired, family-oriented, beautiful, beachy and full of references to the place I come from.

The island where you started singing at a very young age.

Yes. When I was eight, my parents enrolled me in a singing academy, and at 10 I officially told my dad I wanted to be a singer. My first stage was Reina Sofía Park, where I began performing concerts when I was 10 years old.

The starting point of a remarkable artistic journey.

That led me to [TV singing competition] The Voice Kids, where I reached the semifinals. I also became one of the lead actors in the Luis Miguel show. Since then, I’ve spent much more time in the studio, focused on creating music that truly represents me as an artist and sets me apart. More recently, I took part in [singing competition] Benidorm Fest, where I finished fourth in Spain. Now we’re releasing singles.

“I CALL MY STYLE ISLAND POP. IT’S LIKE A FUNKIER POP, WITH AN R&B TINGE”.

How would you describe your musical style?

I call it island pop. It’s a funkier kind of pop with a touch of R&B.

You don’t incorporate much of the electronic music that still dominates the island.

Not really. Obviously, everyone knows Ibiza is famous for its parties. But I’d love to show the world that the island also has many other beautiful and enchanting sides.

Where would you say your career is right now?

I think it’s in one of its best moments. I always say that every day brings new and better things, but right now I’m at a wonderful stage of discovering myself, experimenting, finding out what kind of music connects most, what type of lyrics resonate and how best to reach my audience.

At 21, you’re an Ibizan artist based in Madrid. Would it have been difficult to build a career from the island?

Nothing is difficult if you’re willing to work hard, but it’s true that Madrid offers many more opportunities throughout the year, especially in the music industry. I’m not saying there aren’t opportunities in Ibiza – there are quite a few, especially in summer when lots of people from the industry are there – but when it comes to events and networking, Madrid is essential. My whole team is based here as well. That said, there’s a huge amount of talent in Ibiza, and it really impresses me.

As the grandson of Dyango and the son of Marcos Llunas, what has that musical legacy given you?

It’s given me the privilege of having musical role models close by. That’s been the biggest advantage: being able to ask for advice whenever I need it. At the same time, each of us has followed a completely different path, and the best part is that we support one another. Of course, I love and admire them both enormously, but at the end of the day they’re my father and my grandfather.
