Biography

The Spanish pop/rock band La Unión formed in 1982 in Madrid with lead singer Rafa Sánchez, bassist Luis Bolín, and guitar player Mario Martínez. Keyboardist Íñigo Zabala came aboard shortly thereafter, and the band rode the then current new wave trend serving up the smash single “Lobo Hombre en París” in 1984. Their debut album, Mil silhouettes, followed later that year. Zabala decamped after 1988’s Vivir Al Este. They began changing up their recording process by booking studio time in different countries. British sessions produced 1990’s Tentación, and a trip to America resulted in 1993’s Psycofunkster Au Lait. They remained one of the biggest selling acts in Spain well into the next decade with albums such as 2000’s Grandes éxitos and 2010’s Big Bang. During the 2010’s, they were awarded a double diamond album for their entire discography, but 2017’s We Are Not Alone would prove to be their final album. Sánchez announced the end of the group, implying that the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on the music industry was a major factor in the decision.
