After shooting to fame on the Spanish edition of The X Factor, Pol Granch quickly became a breakout chart success in his homeland. Born Pablo Grandjean in Madrid in 1998, he released his debut album, Tengo Que Calmarme, in 2020. It’s a whip-smart pop odyssey that combines the thoughtful balladry of the title track with breezy, ’80s-inflected rock (“Chocolatito”) with atmospheric, lyrically precocious reflections on young love (“Millonario”). More recently, he rides with confidence on the insistent beats of singles like “No Pegamos” and “De Colegio”.
