Marta Sánchez is a Spanish female vocalist.
She was born on May 8, 1966 in Madrid. Her father, Antonio Sánchez Camporro,
was an opera singer.
Marta began her musical career with the band "Cristal Oskuro", but shortly
after she was discovered by Tino Azores, a sound technician for the popular
pop/rock group Olé-Olé. In 1985, Marta became the lead singer for Olé-Olé,
which catapulted her to fame, and made her one of the biggest sex symbols of
the 1980s in Spain, during a time when the country was getting rid of the
traditional rigid moral values of Catholicism. Her nude photographs in the "Interviu"
glossy magazine marked a whole generation of teenagers.

Marlen", a Spanish adaptation of the popular World War II German love song.
Other hits like "Bailando sin salir de casa" and "Con sólo una mirada"
followed with the group. She remained with the band until 1991, and then
decided to pursue a solo career.
In 1993, Marta released her first solo album, "Mujer" (which was to be the
first in a long string of successes), and her first single, the now classic
"Desesperada", both in Spain and Latin America. Her next album "Mí mundo"
released in 1995 addresses more complex subjects that have a strong social
undertone, such as AIDS. In 1996, Marta recorded "Obsession", a song for the
movie Curdled by Quentin Tarantino. Her third solo album "Azabache" was
released in 1997, and with the collaboration of "Slash" from Guns N' Roses
the album is an exquisite mixture of funk, soul, rock and pop all in one.
She releases her next album "Desconocida" in 1998 and also sings with Andrea
Bocelli in the enormously successful song "Vivo por ella". Her most recent
album, "Soy Yo" was released in 2002. In 2004 she released "Profundo Valor:
Lo Mejor de Marta Sánchez" and In 2005 she started her last tour called
"Gira 2005", which was released in CD and DVD, with the tittle of "Gira
2005, La Coruña, En Directo". |
