MULTI-INSTRUMENTALIST AND MUSIC PRODUCER

Ricky Falkner Miracle (January 31st, 1978) is a multi-instrumentalist musician and a music producer born in Barcelona and based now in Madrid.

He is a bass player and a singer in the bands Egon Soda and a bass player in Mi Capitán. Producer of Love of Lesbian and Iván Ferreiro, he also plays as a musician on their tours.

He was a member of the influential and now dissolved band Standstill.

BIOGRAPHY

Coming from European families (Danish, German, French and Catalan), his paternal grandparents escaped the Nazi occupation in Paris, being granted asylum in Barcelona, Ricky’s home town. It was precisely his grandmother Elsa, who taught him to play the piano and passed her passion for music on to him. As a curious fact, Elsa’s brother, his great uncle Niels K. Jerne won a Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1984 for his findings in immunology.

He studied Music in L’Aula de Música Moderna i Jazz del Liceu and Sonido y Grabación en Estudio in Barcelona.

CAREER

In the early 2000’s, he started playing in bands like Egon Soda (his band from when he was in school), SanPedro, Paul Fuster o Refree, and to publish albums with them. Shortly after he became part of the Barcelonian band Standstill.

His first albums as a producer date also to that period, being the first of them “Ungravity” from Love of Lesbian in 2003, band whose albums he has produced, since then, in its entirety .

All these tours and albums led him to produce or co-produce artists as Sidonie, The New Raemon, Zahara, Miss Cafeína, Iván Ferreiro, Lori Meyers, Berri Txarrak, Niños Mutantes, Mucho, Quique González, Luz Casal or Mikel Erentxun, among many others.

Some of his work has made it to the Top 1 in sales, like the last three albums of Love of Lesbian, which at the same time have also received golden and platinum albums. Others like “En el Espiral” by Lori Meyers o “Casa” by Iván Ferreiro also were number one. 

Many of the produced and co-produced albums by Falkner have been considered “the best of the year” according to the press. Some of them are “Cuentos Chinos para Niños del Japón” by LOL (album of the year at Mondosonoro), “Nones” by Refree (album of the year at Rockdelux), or “Vivalaguerra” by Standstill (album of the year and of the decade at Mondosonoro).

In 2006 he won the Joan Trayter Award to the best producer.

He has balanced his work in production over the years with the tours of his bands Egon Soda, Standstill, and Mi Capitán besides teaming up with Iván Ferreiro and Love of Lesbian.

He also has gone on tour as a bass player on occasional tours  as “Soltad a los perros” by Quique González y Lapido, “Ojo con la Mala” by Mala Rodríguez, with the band Mucho or with The New Raemon on the tours dedicated to the first three.

He has also collaborated on multiple isolated projects, as, for example, the full recreation of “Mediterráneo” by Joan Manuel Serrat along with Amaro Ferreiro on “Hijos del Mediterráneo”, the production of “Gibraltar” by Andrés Calamaro for the movie “Taxi a Gibraltar” or the meeting for a day by Los Rodríguez as a bass player and co-producer to record “Princesa” by Joaquín Sabina.
