Spanish pop music, like bull fighting, Ducados cigarettes and Flamenco is a bit of an acquired taste. This may explain why so few Spanish artists – apart from the odd novelty song like Macarena and Ketchup - have succeeded in the English speaking world.
Punters have the chance to see two of Spain's biggest stars in the unlikely setting of the Amnesia disco this season as part of the 'Popstars' party by Brian Cross. David Bisbal and David Bustamante will perform here on 11th July and 8th August respectively in concerts beginning at 22.30.
Here's a video of Bisbal which truly confirms his unsuitability for Amnesia.
Both artists came to fame on 'Operacion Triunfo' (Spain's version of Fame Academy) in 2002, though neither won. Another OT graduate Soraya
Arnelas will perform each week in Popstars, starting on 4th July.
What a shame we're not selling tickets for that night at Amnesia
