A native of Barcelona, Spain, Albert has self-taught guitar since the age of 14. Albert was exposed to flamenco at an early age, with a mother from Córdoba and grandparents from Sevilla, the southern Spanish province of Andalucía where flamenco originated. In addition to the traditional flamenco, popular throughout Spain, Albert grew up with the global influences characteristic of cosmopolitan Barcelona.

Later formally trained in classical and electric guitar and then in jazz and flamenco, Albert has used his versatile repertoire to create his own unique “fusion” style. His musical career consists of performances with various pop, rock, jazz, funk, acoustic, and flamenco bands throughout Spain and The United States.

Currently residing in New York City, Albert’s notable events include The United Nations, Berklee College of Music, The World Economic Forum and the United States Conference of Mayors, among many others.

In 2013 Albert published ‘Barcelona-New York’ which was recorded at THI Studios in Brooklyn with mastering legend Robert Honablue (Miles Davis, Led Zeppelin, Barbara Streisand, Carlos Santana) and featuring internationally acclaimed saxophonist Melissa Aldana.

Albert’s main project nowadays is ALBA Musik, a powerhouse duo with singer Bárbara Martínez that offers a new kind of flamenco.

In just 2 years ALBA Musik released ‘Dawn’ and ‘Alma’, and both albums made it to the first round for a US Grammy Nomination.

ALBA’s band includes renowned musicians such as Bob DiGiacomo, Arturo Soriano, Yacouba Sissoko, Ernesto Llorens, María Toro, 3 times Grammy Nominated Gonzalo Grau, Joselín Vargas, and Tim Ries from the Rolling Stones.

Albert is currently recording his new studio album with ALBA Musik.
