Alicante, 1983. songwriter, singer, teacher.
Her music reflects human passions and social causes. She is both a commited and real communicator woman. She has done many trainings as a soloist and as a collaborator: Ofir, Rapsoda and La Jose, David de María, Tomasito, Víctor Iniesta (Manolo García), Miguel Campello (elbicho), Zagala, José Luis Montón (Maite Martín, Ara Malikian), Eduardo Paniagua, Wafir S.

She is qualified as a voice technician and flamenco with several mentors. She plays with different vocal colours in her concerts, combining esthetical resources from different cultures and styles with fluency (from flamenco to jazz, from Sephardic and Andalusian to salsa and soul). This, together with her ability of improvisation and her freshness when dancing, makes of her live show a unique experience. The urban style is raising in her creations, since she has also done rap. Both the contemporary and the root come together organically.
Furthermore, la Jose has been facilitating dissemination and learning processes through the voice in workshops at festivals and different institutions for several years. She is convinced of the importance of making her culture known, as well as the transforming and therapeutic power of music and voice.
