Álvaro Benito
Álvaro Benito is a Spanish musician, former professional footballer, and sports commentator, best known as the lead vocalist and guitarist of the rock band Pignoise. Born in Ávila in 1975, Benito's promising football career was cut short by a severe knee injury at the age of 24, which led him to pursue music. He formed Pignoise with bandmates Pablo Alonso and Héctor Polo, gaining fame with their hit single 'Nada que perder' featured in the popular TV series 'Los hombres de Paco.' Over the years, the band has maintained a dedicated fanbase, celebrating its 20th anniversary with a major concert in Madrid. Besides music, Benito has also worked as a youth football coach and sports commentator, balancing his passions for both sports and the arts.
