Born in Madrid in 1991, the singer-composer began showing her passion for music & dance at a very early age, and especially her vocal talent. She received training in classic Spanish dance and spent hours dedicated to vocal studies on a self-teaching basis, learning repertoires of different styles; although her true vocation she found in black music. on a self-teaching basis. At the age of seventeen she joined the popular underground band Akatupower, where she began developing her career as a vocalist. During the following five years the band released two discs, achieving several awards and performing at known music festivals.
Towards the end of the year 2013, Miryam felt the “need” to take a step to further her career, and left the band to start one as a solo artist. Since then she hasn’t stopped to work on that level, topping the bill on programmes at the main clubs in Madrid (Bogui Jazz, Café Berlín, Café Central & Clamores) and also at some festivals (Yecla & Aranjazz). She released her first album at the beginning of 2016, titled Una necesidad, co-produced with ‘Estudio Uno’. In addition, she collaborated with other groups, such as Gospel Factory, Michael Olivera Group and accompanied other artists as a backing singer. Her second disc, Quiero cantarte, is a journey along different cultures and musical influences, created from the love & admiration of the work by Lole & Manuel, Serrat, Djavan and Camarón, among others. The accompanying musicians on the disc were pianist Marco Mezquida, contrabassist Pablo Martín Caminero and drummer & producer Michael Olivera.
