Andalusian Singer Hospitalized with Anxiety Attack Before Concert in Madrid. Andy Morales was urgently taken to hospital two hours before his concert in Madrid. The artist admitted that he has been receiving treatment for anxiety disorders since 2007. The incident did not prevent him from taking the stage.
In Madrid, just hours before taking the stage, renowned Andalusian singer Andy Morales was hospitalized due to an acute anxiety attack. The incident occurred ahead of the artist's final concert, who had performed for many years as part of the Andy y Lucas duo. According to Europa Press, Morales was taken to Hospital 12 de Octubre just two hours before the show was set to begin, where he received medical assistance and was prescribed a sedative.
Despite his condition, the singer still went on stage, though by his own account, he felt insecure and was under the influence of medication. The audience noticed his nervousness at the start of the performance, yet the concert was completed in full. After the show, Morales went to dinner with his team, where, as he admitted, he fell asleep right on the sofa from sheer exhaustion.
Prolonged treatment
Andy Morales does not hide that anxiety disorders have been with him for many years. The artist shared that since 2007, he has been regularly seeing a psychiatrist and a psychologist, and continues pharmaceutical treatment. According to him, every time he steps on stage, there is a risk of a new episode, and medical documents confirm his recent hospitalization: the singer's wrist still bore a hospital band marking the time of admission — 17:20, and by 18:00 he was already taking part in the soundcheck.
The stage and pressure
The case of Andy Morales once again raises the issue of psychological pressure on artists, especially in the context of public performances. Such incidents are not uncommon in the music industry, where emotional stress often leads to health problems. Recalling other high-profile incidents on stage, it is worth noting that a recent concert by Eros Ramazzotti in Barcelona also sparked a strong response among fans and was widely discussed in the media — you can read more about this in the article about the public's reaction to the Italian performer's show.
Context

His openness about his health condition once again highlights the importance of supporting artists and timely medical intervention in cases of anxiety disorders. In Spain, the issue of mental health has become increasingly relevant in recent years, especially among public figures.
