My style derives from a intuitive crossover of genres like, Latin genres, funk, soul, blues, jazz and so on.
Journey
Music and I knew each other long ago but until the teenage years we have started hanging out more and became closer, mainly through the guitar playing, after being inspired by some friends who were playing already.
I started to be every day more interested, borrowed a guitar. One day I broke my ankle playing football on the street. That opened the portal and was when I had to sit and I just started playing more and more everyday.
I started to gather some friends and created a band, later on the members were changing and I just continued flowing. Started creating music events in my hometown, I was being called to play guitar in several bands, from reggae, to blues, rock, pop, etc. Started to attending workshops from visiting guitarist and as well jazz concerts.
All of these experiences, my curiosity and openness to music me made me discover the sonic possibilities and dive in many genres throughout the years which made me develop my way of playing and as a result I expanded my perspective.
Eventually after started my journey out of my home country as guitarist I became creative and started playing with a looper as a way of discover new opportunities and also to be able to be independent.
Now..
At the current moment I’m living in the Netherlands. I’m performing solo or with guests. As well as a guest guitarist with singers and bands that are align with my style.
Furthermore I’m excited with the new projects that are in brewing process. Also my passion for music and creativity are bringing me as well in the journey of Djing since I love to share more music from different genres and parts of the world and bring a great atmosphere.
My vision on music
Music gives life, feelings and healing. Anyone can learn an instrument and use it as a tool of expression and self therapy to canalize all this energies that are flowing inside of us.
The field of music is large and there are many ways of expressing and many types of musicians. In my case I love to create music to play live, specially in the Art of Improvisation because there’s where oneself can reach the highest freedom by merging completely with the present and expressing the deepest reflection of the soul and bring the most beautiful experience for all. Playing live and make original music has always been my favorite.
