Miguel Bosé has been a force in Latin music in a career that has spanned 21 albums, roles in more than 35 films, his own television show, and work as a theatre director. With Picasso as his godfather and Ernest Hemingway among his family friends, Bosé grew up in the arts, constantly traveling from his Panama homeland to Milan, New York, London, Paris, and Madrid. He made his film debut at the age of 15, and at age 21, he began his singing career which eventually lead to international pop stardom.



Defying the contemporary formula for pop success, his music has been described as a global fusion of many musical influences. At the center of his music is all the passion and expression of a Latin artist, yet Miguel Bosé has constantly incorporated more diverse musical elements than many of the genre's crossover pop stars.



Among Miguel Bosé numerous albums are "Velvetina" (2005), "Por Vos Muero", "Sereno", "Bajo El Signo de Cain", "Girados", "Lo Mejor De Miguel Bose", "Laberinto" (Vol. 1 y 2), "Directo '90", "Once Maneras de Ponerse Un Sombrero", "Salamandra", "Bandido", "XXX", "Los Chicos No Lloran", among others.



The extensive list of Miguel Bosé hits songs includes "Down With Love", "Olvídame Tú", "Nada Particular, "Si Tu No Vuelves", "Amante Bandido", "No Hay Ni Un Corazón Que Valga La Pena", "Salamandra", "Como Un Lobo", "Nena", "Hacer Por Hacer", "Sevilla", "Bambú", "Duende", "Morenamía", "Agua Clara", "Te Comería El Corazón", "Lo Que Hay Es Lo Que Ves", "Hojas Secas", "Bandido", among others.
