Bernardo Miranda
Bernardo Miranda Luna, flamenco singer. Born on 8 June 1988 in his hometown Fernán Núñez (Córdoba).
​
His singing is inherited, his father signs and is fond of flamenco, and also his two brothers, besides one of them is guitarist, although not professionally. He has had the chance to listen to his great-grandmothers and uncles, his flamenco ancestors.
He was just 8 when he started singing at home and at the age of 12 he played the stages. He started singing in family meetings and charity events of his village. He was always wanted the summer to arrive to go out with his father (who is a truck driver) in order to listen the great masters of flamenco.
​
Having 18 years old he decides to focus on singing and he understands it as a job and occupation. He started to go frequently and autonomously to his peña flamenca (enthusiasts' club) “El Mirabras” in Fernán Núñez, taking counsel and allowing them to guide him, thus he could learn and perceive flamenco deeply; listening to the great figures of this genre.
Presently he has finished Professional training for medium level of flamenco singing at the conservatory Cristobal de Morales in Seville (2015/2016), in addition he occasionally works in some well-known stages of this city (Los Gallos and Casa la Memoria).
