Bunbury is the recording name for Spanish singer/songwriter Enrique Ortiz de Landazuri Izarduy. Bunbury got involved in music at a young age, making his debut in a high school band later playing with Proceso Entropico and Zumo de Vidrio. Bunbury then joined Heroes Del Silencio in 1987, becoming popular in the Spanish rock scene. After a successful run with Heroes, releasing over six albums during his time in the band, they eventually broke up in 1996. Bunbury went on to a solo career in 1997, releasing the radically different techno album, Radical Sonora, which was also recorded with some former Heroes del Silencio bandmembers.

 In 1999, Bunbury released his darker rock album, Pequeno, followed by the blues influenced Flamingos (2002) and El Viaje A Ninguna Parte (2004). In 2006, Bunbury moved on to a double album, El Tiempo de las Cerezas, with Spanish indie rocker Nacho Vegas and again collaborated with Vegas in 2008 for Hellville De Luxe. The singer/songerwriter's album peaked at number one on the Spanish charts. 2009 saw the release of the pure pop album Las Consecuencias. In 2010, Bunbury collaborated with popular Mexican alternative rock band Zoe, on the single "Nada." Bunbury's latest albums, Licenciado Cantinas and the double album Gran Rex, were both released by EMI in 2011.
