BORJA MONTENEGRO - SPAIN
Since I started playing guitar when I was 7 years old, I consider myself a musician.
I am from Toledo, but I have been living in Madrid all my life.
I studied with several private teachers and later on, I landed in the Conservatory, where I spent several years of my life studying.
At the age of 17, I was already touring with my band "Condena2" opening for Rosana all over Spain and at the same time playing in almost all the small halls and bars in this country. We released a couple of albums and I began to understand how this profession was going thanks to the great professionals around me.
Soon after I received a call from the producer Javier Limón to start working with him, recording guitars and making musical arrangements, in several albums of artists like Ana Belén, Sole Giménez, Jose Luis Perales, Ainhoa Arteta, Lolita... It was the moment when I took off from my project to focus on my career as a musician and begin to understand with so many recordings the work of production, I was 24 years old.
After a few years of recording I started touring with several artists (Perales, Ana Belén and Victor Manuel, Sole Giménez, Manolo Tena, Luz Casal,...) learning the trade of a musician, traveling, tasting the stages, enjoying each concert and at the end of the day forming myself as a person and as a professional.
I am currently touring with Joaquín Sabina in his tour "Contra Todo Pronóstico".
At the same time, I started working as a producer in different projects and performing in several recording studios, until in 2014 I was able to open my own studio, my own space, my home "Diciembre Estudios", where I develop most of my work as a producer.
Alhambra Guitarras and Elixir Strings are the brands that wrap me and help me to develop my work and my career as a professional.
