Biography

He was born in 1993 in the Barrio Cordón, Montevideo. He is the son of Daniel Casanova and Lourdes Sommaruga and has two sisters; Lucía and Soledad. He studied at the Colegio Nuestra Señora de Fátima and later attended the Technological School of the Buceo.[1]

In 2014, Fer Vázquez created a cumbia pop band called Márama, in which Casanova was the vocalist. Other members of the group were Ignacio Rodríguez (Percussion), Agustín Duarte (Drums), Lautaro Moreno (Keyboard), Alejandro Vázquez (Keyboard), Matías Besson (Bass), Martín López (Guitar), Pablo Arnoletti, among others.

In 2016 he was invited to be a participant in the Argentine reality show Bailando 2016[2], where he participated with Josefina Oriozabala. However, he left the show at the eighth gala. In addition, in that year he was the protagonist, acting of himself, in the documentary about the Uruguayan bands Márama and Rombai, entitled Marama - Rombai - El viaje.[3]

The following year he also participated in Bailando 2017, where he accompanied Flor Vigna and was replaced after his abandonment.[4] In that same year the band Márama went on hiatus, and from there he was a solo singer. Later, together with former members of the group, they formed the "Team Casanova" playing the songs of that group.[5][6]

In 2018, he debuted as an actor in the Argentine telenovela Simona[7], playing Dante Funes Guerrico. Later, Agustín made a millionaire demand to Fer Vázquez, singer and producer of Rombai and former producer of Márama.[8] In June he released his first song in his solo career, called Ando Buscando, featuring Chyno Miranda.[9][10] A month later he released his second song with Abraham Mateo and Mau and Ricky, Bailoteame.[11] In November he released his third solo song, and the first without collaboration, Sin Regreso.[12] On January 4, 2019, he released his fourth song, called Bye bye. And on September 5 he released his fifth song called "Tiri Tiri".[13][14] In 2019, he participated in the second season of Millennials, playing Ramiro Salazar.[15]

In September 2019, it was confirmed that he would serve as a judge in Got Talent Uruguay, which premiered on June 22, 2020, on Channel 10.[16] The other judges are María Noel Ricceto, Claudia Fernández and Orlando Petinatti.[17]
