Llunas, son of Spanish singer Dyango, released his self-titled first album in 1993. His biggest hit was "Para reconquistarte", it became a smash-hit all over Hispanic America during the whole 1993, it peaked at the number one position and spent several weeks at the top in Argentina, Mexico, Chile and Uruguay. He later recorded several moderately successful singles.

In 1995, Llunas was chosen internally by broadcaster Televisión Española (TVE) as their representative for the 24th edition of the OTI Festival with the song "Eres mi debilidad", written by Alejandro Abad. At the contest, held in San Bernardino, Paraguay on 11 November, he finished in first place, winning the contest. Also in 1995, he was nominated for a Lo Nuestro Award for Pop New Artist of the Year at the 7th Lo Nuestro Awards.[1]

In the years following his Eurovision appearance, Llunas recorded in Portuguese and Catalan in addition to Spanish, and became particularly successful in Latin American markets. He released a career retrospective album in 2004. Between 2002 and 2007 he made appearances as a juror on Spanish television talent shows Operación Triunfo and Lluvia de estrellas.
