His name originates from his round, black face. Villa Fernández was born in Guanabacoa, eastern Havana, where he studied at the music school, Conservatorio de José Mateu. He worked as a chauffeur and played piano for silent films until his friend Rita Montaner took him on as an accompanist in the early 1930s. After Montaner returned to Cuba, Villa Fernández remained in Mexico and developed an original performance style as a pianist and singer.
