Abraham Mateo Chamorro (born 25 August 1998), is a Spanish singer, songwriter, actor, and record producer.[3][4][5] He is known for his soulful and dance-oriented music.[6]

Mateo was only seven when he began winning prizes on television shows and at the age of nine, he was awarded the Revelation Prize at Spain's national music contest for kids.[4][7] For over three years, Mateo starred as a regular on children's TV show  [es], where he stood out for his strong vocal abilities and stage presence. Around age ten, he signed a recording contract with EMI Music Spain and released a debut self-titled album, Abraham Mateo.[2]

He returned four years later with his second album, AM, on Sony Music Spain.[8] The album showcased Mateo's growth as a performer and found him incorporating electronic and dance elements into his sound. With the single "Señorita", he made his breakthrough in the music scene, achieving a great success in Spain and Latin America.[9][10][11] "Señorita" stayed in the Spain's Top 50 single charts for almost a year and its music video was the most trending music video of 2013 in YouTube Spain.[12] In 2014 Mateo released his third studio album, Who I AM, which peaked at number one in Mexico and Spain.[13][14][15] A fourth album, Are You Ready?, followed a year later, showcasing his own songwriting skills and a more mature style. Mateo's albums have received one Platinum and three Gold certifications in Spain.[14][16][17] In 2017, he released "Loco Enamorado", an urban pop song featuring Farruko that marks Mateo's comeback to the spotlight. "Loco Enamorado" entered Billboard charts, Spotify's Global Top 50, and has been multi-Platinum certified in US, Spain and Latin America.[18][19] Recently, he released "Háblame Bajito" with 50 Cent and Austin Mahone and "Se Acabó El Amor" with Yandel and Jennifer Lopez.[20]

From 2014 onwards, Mateo has embarked on three concert tours across Spain and Latin America, delivering over 80 live shows altogether. Being so young, he sold out countless shows at major venues and arenas such as the National Auditorium in Mexico City, the Luna Park Stadium in Buenos Aires, the Caupolicán Theatre in Santiago de Chile, and the Sports Centre in Madrid. He was the opening act for the British boyband One Direction in Peru, Chile and Spain as part of their 2014's Where We Are Tour.[21][22] Mateo has performed on the European Spanish soundtrack of several computer-animated movies and series including Frozen and Minions.[23][24][25] He has appeared in small roles and cameos in TV movies and series broadcast in Spain and Portugal.[26]

Beginnings[]

Abraham Mateo was born on 25 August 1998 in San Fernando, Cádiz, the younger child of Antonio Mateo, a construction worker and security guard, and Susana Chamorro, a housewife. He has an older brother, Tony, who also sings and plays music. Mateo was born into a family with musical roots; his maternal grandfather was a tenor soloist with a church choir, his paternal grandfather was a flamenco singer, and his mother sings Boleros and Spanish music. He started singing at the age of three by imitating the performances of the TV talent show Operación Triunfo. Mateo's first vocal coach was his mother Susana and he later continued his music education by attending singing lessons. He learned to play flute at age six, piano and keyboard at age eight, and acoustic guitar at age ten, teaching himself how to play by ear.[33][34]

In 2006, at the age of seven, he was awarded with a special mention at the regional music competition for kids in Andalusia, organized by the Teresa Rabal Foundation. Two years later, he won the revelation award at the national competition.[4][7] In 2008, he debuted in the children's television show "Menuda Noche" that airs on the Canal Sur TV of Andalusia.[35] For over four years, Mateo starred as a regular in "Menuda Noche", where he performed songs by Nino Bravo,[36] Rocío Dúrcal,[37] Alejandro Sanz,[38] David Bisbal,[39] Miguel Gallardo,[40] Sandro Giacobbe,[41] David Bustamante, Melody and other Latin artists.
