Antonio Orozco (Barcelona, 23 November 1972) is a Spanish singer-songwriter.

He is the son of a couple of Sevillian working-class marriage, and he spent his childhood in Hospitalet de Llobregat. He bought his first guitar when he was 15 years old and started to compose songs. He has won several prizes like the Premio Ondas and sold lots of records, his first album sold more than 100,000 copies, whereas his second album titled Semilla del Silencio sold over 300,000 copies.

In 2005 he released a self titled album Antonio Orozco, which was a compilation of his best songs (twelve in total) that eventually propelled him into stardom outside Spain, mainly in Latin America and other parts of the world. Some of his better known songs include: "Te Esperaré" and "Déjame".

He is known as well because of his duets with Lucie Silvas (What You're Made Of) and Malú (Devuélveme la vida).
