DIEGO MARTIN (SPAIN)

This young Spanish singer-songwriter, featuring his model A-3 A B acoustic guitar, joins the family of Alhambra Guitarras endorsement artists.

Career and Roots: Between Cartagena and Melilla

Diego Martínez Galindo, widely known by his stage name Diego Martín, was born on January 24, 1979, in Cartagena (Murcia), although it was actually in Melilla where his musical journey truly began. In fact, his third album is titled Melicia, a homage commemorating these two lands that form a fundamental part of his life and songwriting.

"Little by little, music started capturing me in a way I couldn't explain; it displaced everything else and became my life."

And so, with a guitar and basic music fundamentals, he penned his first songs: tracks filled with raw emotion, personal stories, and experiences rooted in youthful passion.

Chart Success and Musical Breakthrough

Guided by producer Xavi Pérez (renowned for his work with Antonio Orozco), Diego landed his first record deal and launched a successful career that quickly paid off. Selling nearly 100,000 copies of his debut album, VIVIR NO ES SÓLO RESPIRAR, the artist established himself during a particularly challenging era for the music industry.

Featured on this debut release, the hit single "Déjame verte" achieved Digital Gold certification. Furthermore, the track was selected for the original soundtrack of the feature film Café solo o con ellas, directed by Álvaro Díaz Lorenzo, which became the highest-grossing Spanish film of the year and earned accolades at the Málaga Film Festival.

The artist's definitive consolidation came with his follow-up album, PUNTOS SUSPENSIVOS, supported by a nationwide tour across Spain with over 100 live concerts. This record spawned multiple chart-topping singles and earned him the prestigious Premios Dial award.

Subsequent successful releases followed, including Melicia, Siendo, and Con los pies en el cielo—albums that continued winning awards and consistently securing spots in the Top 100 official sales charts.

Acting Career and Official Channels

In addition to his dedication to music and acoustic guitars, Diego Martín has developed a notable acting career. Highlight achievements include his role in the television series El Incidente (produced by Boomerang), sharing the screen with acclaimed actors such as Marta Etura, Miquel Fernández, Bárbara Lennie, and Jordi Coll.
