El Potito, (born Antonio Vargas Cortés in Seville in 1976) is a Spanish flamenco and new flamenco singer.[1][2] He has been hailed as a "young singer tipped to be following in the footsteps of El Camaron."[3] Bernard Leblon said he has a "prodigious voice capable of hitting incredibly high notes, [and] was an overnight sensation in the world of flamenco."[4]

From a child at the age of 10,[5] he began acting, singing and flamenco dancing on the tourist boats on the Guadalquivir River. As a teenager, collaborated with acclaimed artists such as Paco de Lucía ("Zyrjab").[6] By 1996 he had already released two albums with collaborations with Vicente Amigo and others. He has since performed in a large number of performances internationally, collaborating in performances of Joaquin Cortes and Sara Baras, and is a singer in the Tomatito group. Altogether he has released six albums, the last of which is Macandé.
