Editor's note

Manuel Medrano's guitar-driven Colombian pop

A Cartagena singer-songwriter whose melodic folk-pop found an audience across Latin America.

For a good sense of his style, 'Bajo El Agua' still holds up. 'La Distancia' and 'Hay Una Luz Dentro de Ti' are also solid examples of his melodic writing.

His 2015 debut album introduced a sound that felt both personal and accessible, anchored by the single 'Bajo El Agua' which became a genuine hit. Songs like 'Mi Otra Mitad' and 'La Maza' show his straightforward, guitar-based approach to writing. He's kept that melodic focus through later records like 'Contra El Viento' and 'Eterno'.

He started playing guitar as a teenager in Cartagena bars and open mics. The self-titled 2015 album broke through, and he's followed it with a few more records that stick to his pop-folk lane. He's collaborated with other Colombian artists like Juanes along the way.

That first record established his sound, which pulls from pop and folk with some rock touches. He followed it with albums like 'Contra El Viento' in 2018 and 'Eterno' in 2021. Songs like 'La Distancia' and 'Hay Una Luz Dentro de Ti' show his knack for melodic, straightforward writing.
