Biography

Falete's father was a founding member of the musical group Cantores de Híspalis.[2] At the age of 17, he made his debut at the Teatro Lope de Vega, Seville, where he sang for La Chunga. In the mid-90s, he traveled around the United States, singing alongside Juanito Valderrama, José Menese and José Manuel Soto.[3]

In 1997, Falete starred in the anthology Novísimos, huele a flamenco. He traveled to Japan in 2002 with La Paquera de Jerez to tour theaters until 2004, when he released his debut album Amar duele, which rendered him a national musical and media figure.[3] It was a compilation of covers of some of his favorite songs.

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
