About Fito & Fitipaldis

Born from the ashes of the legendary rock band Platero y Tú, Fito & Fitipaldis emerged in the late 1990s as a powerful new force in Spanish rock. Fronted by the charismatic and insightful Adolfo “Fito” Cabrales, the band quickly carved out a unique identity, blending classic rock sensibilities with deeply personal and poetic lyrics. Fito’s distinctive gravelly voice, coupled with his knack for crafting memorable melodies and poignant narratives, struck a chord with a vast audience. Their debut album, “A Puerta Cerrada” (1998), laid the groundwork, but it was with subsequent releases like “Los Mundos Imaginarios” (2001) and the critically acclaimed “Lo que a veces callamos” (2003) that they solidified their position as one of Spain’s premier rock acts.
