Artist Biography
Vocalist/guitarist Jaime Urrutia gained recognition as a member of Ejecutivos Agresivos and frontman in the popular rock trio Gabinete Caligari, two groups associated with Spain's Movida Madrileña countercultural movement. After nearly 20 years fronting Gabinete Caligari, Urrutia struck out on his own when the band officially split in October 1999. He teamed up with veteran Spanish rock producer Esteban Hirschfeld, and -- after sifting through repertoire that Urrutia wrote during his days with Gabinete Calignari -- the pair recorded and experimented with mixing styles and sounds for Urrutia's 2002 debut solo album, Patente de Corso, featuring the singles "Que Barbaridad" and "Castillos en el Aire." Urrutia's second disc, El Muchacho Electrico, arrived in 2005, followed in 2007 by the live album En Joy. ~ Evan C. Gutierrez
