Biography
Born in Madrid, Spain, Carmen grew up singing from a very early age. A member of the choirs in both church and school, she was often asked to be a soloist, as she displayed a natural gift for singing. At home, she took up the guitar, and self-taught, by the age of fifteen began composing the lyrics and music to her own songs. Around this time, while playing and singing at a party with some friends, she met singer, and now journalist, Jos Martin, of the group “Somos”. Within a short period of time they began doing concerts as a duo, with Carmen presenting herself as a singer and composer in public for the first time.
With the recording of the group by the EMI Record Company Carmen got her first taste of working in the recording studio, and became a published songwriter. Shortly thereafter, while pursuing her degree in education at the University of Madrid, Carmen auditioned, and was asked to join the cast of the show “Godspell” in the role of Mary Magdalena. And so, at the age of seventeen, she put her studies on hold to perform both in Madrid, and throughout the rest of Spain with this theater troupe. The cast included many talented performers, comedians, actors, dancers and singers, many of whom later went on to become well known personalities in the world of Spanish entertainment.
Upon her return to Madrid, Carmen’s career, both as a performing artist and as an in demand studio singer, flourished. Her days were spent at recording sessions of all types while at night she was performing in various theatrical productions in Madrid’s major theaters. This did not, however, prevent her from continuing to develop her talents as a songwriter and artist in her own right.
