Manuela Vellés Returns to Music: New Single Ocupo espacio Marks a Creative Transformation
Spanish actress and singer Manuela Vellés has officially returned to music with her new single Ocupo espacio. The song is her first release in a long time and serves as the starting point for her upcoming studio album, scheduled for 2026. The track is already available on digital music platforms, accompanied by a music video published on the artist’s official channels.
Vellés’ new work blends electronic sounds with live instruments, creating a subtle, atmospheric style. The song centers on personal growth, self-acceptance, and the right to claim one’s own space in the world. The title Ocupo espacio (“I occupy space”) emphasizes the key idea of the track — conscious presence and liberation from imposed limitations.
According to the artist, this single is part of a larger musical project. Her upcoming album will reflect her personal and creative evolution over recent years, focusing on emotional and philosophical themes, while maintaining the introspective pop style that characterizes her music.
Manuela Vellés’ music career has developed alongside her acting work for over a decade. In 2018, she released her debut album Subo, bajo and several singles that established her as an independent artist with a distinctive style. Her songs are known for their personal experience, minimalism, and emotional honesty.
Vellés is primarily recognized as an actress. Born in Madrid in 1987, she gained popularity through Spanish series and films such as “Velvet”, “Hispania”, and “Alta mar”. Music has always been important to her: she started writing songs as a teenager and taught herself to play the guitar.
In recent years, Vellés has lived in Barcelona, balancing acting and music with film production. Together with director and producer Ibon Cormenzana, she participates in production projects while maintaining an active presence in the creative space.
The release of Ocupo espacio is more than just a new song; it marks Manuela Vellés’ return to music at a new level. The single has already attracted attention from fans and media, signaling the start of a new phase in her career — one that is more mature, thoughtful, and personal.
