Alex Ubago

Spanish Latin pop star Alex Ubago was born in Vitoria on January 29, 1981. His family moved to San Sebastian when Alex, an only child, was four. He wrote his first song at the age of 15, and they eventually landed on the desk of DRO Atlantic artistic director Alfonso Perez. In October of 2000 the contracts were signed. Three years later, Que Pides Tu was released, followed by 2004's Fantasia o Realidad, which would win Ubago international stardom. The latter record achieved gold and platinum status, given its strong sales in Spain, Latin America, and the U.S. In 2006, Ubago released Aviones de Cristal, featuring the song "Viajar Contigo," one of Ubago's many Billboard chart successes. ~ Evan C.
