Born in Barcelona to a German father and a Spanish mother, he became multilingual at a young age. He moved with his parents to Japan at age 10, staying there until age 17. He took piano lessons very early in Japan. Returning to Barcelona, in 2010 he established the musical band Urban Lights alongside his brother and some friends. The band continued performing music described as a mixture of British pop, indie pop and electronic music building following locally. They won a university music contest and the band appeared in 2013 on the Spanish music casting contest ¡Tú sí que vales! reaching the Final 8. They released some materials and self-produced album. Soler also pursued studies in industrial design at Escuela de Grafismo Elisava, also going to a music school and working with a modeling agency based in Barcelona.
Soler decided to drop the Urban Lights band in 2014 to go solo establishing himself as a musical artist based in Germany. Based in Berlin, he released his single "El Mismo Sol" co-written by Soler and Ali Zuckowski and Simon Triebel (from the band Juli) and produced by Triebel. The song released on 24 April 2015 became initially a huge hit Italy reaching number one on the Italian FIMI and certified double platinum. It also made it to number one on the Swiss Swiss Hitparade singles chart. The single became a pan-European hit for him charting also in Germany, France, Belgium, Austria and the Netherlands.
Based on this success, Soler released his debut solo album Eterno Agosto released on 23 June 2015 on Universal Music.
The first taste of this upcoming re-issue is the song and proper lead single called “Sofia“. The song was written by Alvaro Tauchert Soler, Simon Triebel, Ali Zuckowski, Jakke Erixson and Nadir Khayat (RedOne), who also produced it with his team. The music video directed by Noel Dernesch was filmed in Cuba in March, and it was premiered along the single’s release on April 15th.

Me rompes el corazón
Y ahora me pides perdón
Date la vuelta que
Que hace tiempo que te lo niego
Nunca dejarás de ser fuego
Sabes que, sabes que eras mi tesoro
Inocente ya lo sé
Pero yo me enamoré eh
Luego tú, luego tú y tus palabras
Se giraron y construyeron murallas
Yo nunca pude entender
Me olvidaste en el ayer-er
Hace tanto tiempo que ya no lo siento
Oh
Me rompes el corazón
Y ahora me pides perdón
Date la vuelta que
Que hace tiempo que te lo niego
Nunca dejarás de ser fuego
Oh oh oh oh oh
Fuego fuego, fuego fuego
Oh oh oh oh oh
Fuego fuego, fuego fuego
Ahora ya no hay abrigo para el invierno
Y quieres salir a cazar con tu veneno
Bueno, aquí no hay nada allá, mejor mira por allá
Creo que ya, creo que ya que se te ha olvidado
Que tú formas parte del pasado
Ya no voy a pelear
No me vas a marear
Hace tanto tiempo que yo no lo siento

The lyrics of "Fuego" by Alvaro Soler feat. Nico Santos are telling a story of a broken heart due to the unfaithfulness of a lover. The singer is addressing their former lover, who has betrayed them and is now trying to make amends. The singer tells them to turn around since they have denied them for too long and that they will always be fire, meaning that they are unpredictable and dangerous.
In the second verse, the singer reminisces about when their lover was once their treasure, but they have since become heartless and built walls around themselves. The singer admits to being naive and falling in love with them, but they later betrayed them and forgot about them in the past. The chorus then repeats, emphasizing how the lover will always be fire, and they will never change.
In the bridge, the singer tells their ex to stop talking about love since it was never theirs to give. They then express they have moved on and ask them to do the same. The song repeats the chorus to close out the song and reinforce the idea that the lover is still fire and will always burn anyone who gets too close.
