Noemí Carrión

Noemí Carrión is a Spanish singer (soprano and mezzo soprano), songwriter, arranger, recording artiste, producer and actress, who originates from Alicante, Spain. Her work encompasses recording, songwriting, arranging, session performance, live performance, TV performance, TV presenting, dancing and fashion modelling.

Biography

Background

Primarily a solo artist, Carrión has been a part of numerous groups including Mito, Nieva[1] and Sugar Reef, and was a singer in the popular Spanish group La Década Prodigiosa. She has also sung with the musicians of Seguirdad Social, UB40, Revólver and Prisa, and performed as a session singer.

Carrión has worked with numerous members of the Spanish music industry, including David Ferrero (Mónica Naranjo, Chambao) of Level Records (Madrid), award-winning producer es:Antonio Escobar Núñez[1] and Universal Music/Vale Music producer & remixer Carlos Quintero (Chenoa, Beth). She has recorded in many of the important studios of Madrid.

Roots

Carrión began her professional musical career at 16 in Alicante (Spain) by adding her voice to the songs of other artists, acting, recording for advertising jingles and winning various musical contests in the cities of Spain. At 21, she settled in Madrid to study music, composition, voice, guitar, percussion, violin, modern dance, dramatic art, music history and music interpretation, for theater, movies & TV.

As well as 3 years of study at La Strada and El Almadén stage & drama schools, she has taken courses in Hip Hop, Latin American, Jazz and Street dance styles, in interpretive charisma, in dubbing (with the prestigious José Padilla), and in acting interpretation with actress & casting director Rosa Estévez. In 1997, she independently released “Fruta Prohibida”, which was followed in 1998, by “Pachá Alicante”.

Commercial success

In 2001, she participated in the TVE festival show es:Eurocanción, aired on TVE1, going on to become a finalist in the Spanish Eurovision Contest with the song Sin Rencor, reaching 4th position with 63 points. She has also sung in important festivals of Spain including The DJ Awards, Festival Freedom (Torremolinos) and El Mediatic.

In 2002, her pop-dance track, the funky house anthem “Friday Night Forever” (Sony Music Entertainment/Weekend Records), written by Peder Ernerot & Gustav Lund, and recorded under the alias Naymi, hit the charts of Máxima FM, and was well-received in the clubs and on the radio. Distributed in Spain, Portugal, Italy, USA, UK and Russia, DJ Magazine (UK) gave the record top star ratings in September 2002. The Club mixes were produced by the most famous DJs and House producers in Spain - David Ferrero, Wally Lopez, Pedro Del Moral and Dr Kucho!, who according to the same DJ Magazine article, were “the entire Spanish ‘A’ list” and who still dominate the Spanish club scene. An industry promo CD of “Friday Night Forever” featured another Naymi song called “Superwoman” also written by Ernerot & Lund, and later covered by Sonny O'Brien in 2005. In 2002-3, Naymi recorded an album for Sony Music, produced by David Ferrero, with vocals produced by Dr Kucho! and Antonio Escobar, which, due to changes within Sony Europe, was not released. After Naymi’s release of “Friday Night Forever”, the song was covered by Dutch pop star Sonny O’Brien in 2003.

Theater appearances

Carrión has starred in various musicals including "Pippi Calzaslargas" in 2000 at the Teatro de Madrid, and “We Will Rock You” (a show inspired by rock group Queen) [2] at the Teatro Calderón (Madrid) in 2003 and 2004 [3], where she was elected by Brian May to interpret his ballad “No One But You (Only The Good Die Young)” [4]. Additionally, she appears on the Spanish theatrical soundtrack (double CD) of the musical.[5] A special Spanish Bonus CD of Queen: We Will Rock You (Español) features No One But You (Sólo Por Ti) [Short Version, Long Version & Multimedia Version], as well as Bohemian Rhapsody [Multimedia Version - with images from the musical].[6]

Television and movie work

Carrión has performed voice-overs for advertising commercials including Santander Central Hispano, Caser Seguros, Canal Isabel II, Ikea, Orange, Jazztel and La Resistencia: El Musical - the campaign against cervical cancer, all of which aired on national networks.

She has appeared on television performing cover songs and theme tunes as a soloist, as a member of a group, and as a chorus girl for other artists. She has been the principal singer with the orchestra for the TV series “A La Carta” broadcast on Antena 3, and has also acted in film shoots for publicity films, promotional films and short films.

Guest appearances

In 2004 in addition to her theatrical work, Carrión appeared for one year in the TV program "Agustín Bravo". In 2005, she appeared in "Gente De Primera", a Spanish reality TV programme on TVE alongside guests Marta Sanchez, David Civera and Pastora Soler [7].

Carrión has also worked as a chorus girl for artistes such as French smooth jazz guitarist Marc Antoine [8] on his 2005 album “Modern Times” (Rendezvous Entertainment) [9] (most notably on Camden Town, Samba Hood, and Cantar Al Amor); with Mexican singer, Raphael, as a soprano soloist on his 2005 Mexican tour; [10] for Pablo Moro (Carlito Records, Spain); and in 2005, performing as a chorus girl in the children’s programme “Brunelesky” (Telecinco), appearing on the CD of the show.

Pop development

In 2006, Naymi's spectacular pop-dance rendition of ABBA’s “Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!” (Blanco Y Negro, Spain, and Mas Label, Mexico),[11] also produced by David Ferrero, was released with group Mito, and like “Friday Night Forever”, was well-received on the radio airwaves.

Later in 2006, Carrión appeared as a main character in the series “L´Alqueria Blanca” (Canal 9, Valencia), for production company, Zenit TV. She also starred as a solo singer in the 2006 musical spectacle “On Broadway” in Madrid, for production company Cie Stage Holdings.

In 2006 and 2007, Carrión performed as a singer with La Gran Orquesta Santiago in Madrid, and in 2007, at the esteemed Circo Price theatre (Madrid), in the musical spectacle “Charivari” directed by Rob Tannion [12]. At this time, she also taught popular music composition at the Marand School Of Music, Madrid.

Rock launch

Since 2007, Carrión became the force behind Nieva (Spanish group) meaning Snows, a commercial Rock Español group which she formed in 2004 with Antonio Escobar [13]. With their dark but vibrant, epic sound, Nieva took an innovative step beyond Spanish pop-rock, fusing electric guitars and electronica. Later in 2007, Nieva toured the cities of Spain with a full band [14], before recording and producing their first album “Sed De Mar (Sea Of Thirst)” (Antipop), for future release.

With vocals engineered by David Ferrero, the production was based on the 1999 hit “Rio” by Danish pop group Bluebeat (Virgin Records), also produced by East, which had reached number 4 in the MTV Europe video hit list. Also in 2010, Carrión returned to the studio to complete Nieva's debut album.
