His parents are José Bisbal, a professional boxer who was Spanish national Bantamweight and Featherweight champion and part of a trio of flamenco musicians, and Maria Ferre Montoya. He is the youngest of three siblings, a brother named José María and a sister named María del Mar. As a child, Bisbal showed a talent for performing, but was always very shy about doing so in public.


Bisbal attended the secondary school IES Al-Andalus in Almería, but dropped out in his second to last year at around age 15. After dropping out, his father took him to work in a greenhouse in Almería, which was his first known job. A few years later he met the producer of Orchestra Expressions, a popular band in Almería. After listening to and discovering his vocal quality, the producer offered him employment as the main singer of the group.


Through his work in Orchestra Expressions, he gradually began to develop as a singer, and to discover his passion for music. David went on to audition for 'Pop Idol,' in Barcelona, Spain. In 2001, he was one of 16 contestants in the first Spanish edition of 'Idol' designed to choose the representative for the 'Eurovision' festival of that year. He came in second place to Rosa López. Bisbal then performed at Eurovision with Rosa López, David Bustamante, Chenoa, Gisela and Geno, in the chorus.
