Spanish singer-songwriter Luis Eduardo Aute dies. The well-known Spanish singer-songwriter Luis Eduardo Aute died this Saturday in a Madrid hospital at the age of 76, according to sources in his family circle quoted by several media. Considered one of the main references of the author’s song in Spain, Aute (Manila, September 13, 1943) was retired from the stage since the summer of 2016, when he suffered a serious heart attack that kept him almost two months in a coma. That year, the musician, visual artist, filmmaker and poet completed half a century of his career and was preparing to close the performances in the Fiestas Colombinas de Huelva. To celebrate the 50th anniversary of his first studio recording, he organized the La Gira Luna tour, which began with a recital at the National Auditorium in Mexico and took him on a tour of Spain with 15 concerts, one of them on June 21 in Madrid as part of a solidarity initiative to help refugees.
