admira: You come from a family of artists and you will have emotional memories of your childhood. Tell us, what were your beginnings like?
Tatiana: Well, my beginnings were really at my mother’s side. My mother stopped dancing when I was eight and a half months pregnant, so she didn’t give me a break inside her belly, so that I could work, that is, so that I didn’t have so many stimuli. But, well, it’s something that has helped me a lot.
And well, the reality is that I’ve always been attached to her, I started going on international tours with her when I was 6-7 years old. But even before that, when I was 4-5 years old, I accompanied my mother, going everywhere with her: to Córdoba, to Almería, to many other places to dance; and I started playing percussion.
Later, professionally speaking, as a singer, producer and so on, I started producing music when I was 12 years old and when I was 15-16, I won my first street contest. And basically everything has been a development that I have worked on little by little, working hard and trying to fulfil the dream that many of us have, which is to be able to dedicate ourselves to music.
admira: What did it mean for you to have taken part in TVE1’s Dúos Increíbles Tv show?
Tatiana: Well, it was an incredible opportunity, an exposure, a positioning that I didn’t have before and, moreover, I was sponsored by one of the most important singers in this country, from a generation of which there are not so many people who are dedicated to music anymore, and she is still active. In fact, I was recently at the Teatro Real, where she sold out and it’s incredible, she is Diana Navarro. She is still my godmother and I work with her for my project as well as hers. So, participating in Dúos Increíbles on TVE1 has given me the opportunity to meet incredible people, as the name of the TV Show says, and to live an experience that I will take with me for the rest of my life.
admira: What do you look for when choosing a guitar?
Tatiana: Well, the truth is that it depends. There are guitars that I go to a shop or I know a friend who has one and I basically try them out and I fall in love with the sound and the vibe that the guitar gives me. There are guitars that I fall in love with because they have a beautiful design and also, they are complemented by a good sound and so, consequently. It’s true that I really like to have a wide variety of guitars in my studio, because in the end I work with a lot of artists who come in and maybe they need to record electric guitars, acoustic guitars, flamenco guitars. So, I always have a lot of guitars and that’s why for me it has been an opportunity and an honour to have an admira Acoustic guitar at home, in the studio, in my studio in Madrid, in Daje Zira, and to be able to count on this brand with a long history, because in the end it’s a brand that I’ve had close to me since I was a little girl. The first electro-flamenco guitar I had was an Admira guitar.
For me, it was truly incredible to be able to start collaborating with the admira team. It’s funny how during life you go round in circles, you progress, and you make things happen.
I’d like to add that I’m a big fan of the Admira brand, I’ve been to a lot of places where there are admira guitars. I tried the admira Acoustics Tennessee in a musical instrument shop in Algeciras, I fell in love with the sound projection.
admira: Giving free rein to your imagination… What would your ideal guitar that doesn’t yet exist be like?
Tatiana: I think my ideal guitar would be a flamenco guitar with a design, maybe a different carving, with a neck, like many electric guitars have with drawings on the inside, like that. And maybe it would be very special, above all it would have a mixture of styles, it would be different, maybe that’s what I’d like… And also, I’m talking about a flamenco guitar because I come from a flamenco family and although I love all guitars and I love all styles of music, in the end my ideal and versatile guitar would be the flamenco guitar.
admira: What projects are you working on now, and what plans do you have on the horizon?
Tatiana: Well, I’m producing a lot of artists, I’m working on several artists’ albums and I have a lot of responsibility for that. And I’m making my own new album, which will be out soon, I hope. I’ve been thinking about doing something like this for a while, I’ve been away from home for ten years, I want to delve into those feelings of what it’s like to be away from home for so long. I’m thinking about it, and well, the new album will have this central theme.
