About Quique González (Live) & Mega Spanish Party
Enrique González Morales, better known as Quique González, is a Spanish singer/songwriter born in Madrid on 1973, known for his approachable and natural writing style.
Following less-than-successful exploits in Mallorca and London, he returned to Madrid in order to pursue his love for music. There, he began performing locally and collaborating with artists like Enrique Urquijo. González’s song “Aunque Tú No Lo Sepas” appeared on one of Urquijo’s records, leading to the pair performing the song live on television in 1998.
This appearance offered González his first national exposure and a two-song demo entitled “Cantautores: La Nueva Generación” quickly followed.
Frustrated in talks with Polygram, González decided to release his full-length debut independently, though it floundered without major-label support. The album’s quality, however, secured a contract with Polygram, who released González’s sophomore album, Salitre 48, in 2001.
His reputation as a writer with wry wit and personal sensitivity grew with the release of “Pájaros Mojados” in 2002. As the record industry shifted beneath him, González sought an alternative to working with the multi-national labels he claimed were too preoccupied with pop stars and reality television shows and so established his own label Varsovia!!! Records in 2003 with the release of “Kamikazes Enamorados”.
A total of two records are released under this label before signing with the Spanish major label DRO Atlantic. His work with DRO, including the albums Ajuste de Cuentas (2006) and Avería y Redencíon (2007), became the most successful of his career so far.
