Biography

Argentine singer-songwriter Alejandro Federico Lerner (June 8, 1957) rose to fame in the 1980s with his silky-smooth blend of romantic ballads and adult-oriented rock. Born in Buenos Aires into a family of Ashkenazi Jewish descent, he began his career as a professional musician working with RaÃºl Porchetto, Gustavo Santaolalla, and LeÃ³n Gieco before forming the band La Magia in 1981. After releasing just one album, the group broke up and Alejandro Lerner issued his first solo LP Todo a PulmÃ³n in 1983. Propelled by the popularity of its title track, the album was a smashing success in Argentina and catapulted him to stardom. For the rest of the decade, Alejandro Lerner continued his winning streak with titles like Lernertres (1984), Concierto (1985), Algo Que Decir (1987), and Canciones (1988), his first outing for BMG. During the 1990s, albums like Amor Infinito (1993), Permiso de Volar (1994), and Magic Hotel (1997) established him as one of the most sought-after composers in the international pop scene as he penned hits for the likes of Luis Miguel and CÃ©line Dion. In 1997, his song "Volver a Empezar," specially written for the TV drama RRDT, won a MartÃn Fierro Award for Best Original Music. It was also included in the album of the same name released later that year. Subsequently, Alejandro Lerner collaborated with Santana on the 2002 album Shaman and scored another hit with the single "DespuÃ©s de TÃ" from his 2003 LP Buen Viaje. In 2006, he broke a three-year recording hiatus with 2006's Canciones para Gente NiÃ±a, followed by the Latin Grammy-nominated Enojado in 2007. AutÃ©ntico, his fifteenth studio effort, appeared in 2016 via Sony Music.
