Been writing poems since i was 10 and started writing songs in spanish once my spanish was developed well enough, which was in July of 2007.
Big fan of Boleros and early Salsa and all ancestors of it (Son, Bomba, Plena, Guajira, Jibaro, etc.) Also love Latin Jazz and many other latin genres (Merengue, Cumbia, Reggaeton, Bachata, etc.)
Into making all kinds of music, english or spanish, doesn't really matter to be honest, i have no desire to make it in the music industry but i won't deny i'd like to discover the limits of my musical talent and creativity.
I'm always up to jam on weekends or friday nights/monday nights. I work full time and am a full-time law student so that cuts my music time short, i do however, practice a lot and educate myself daily. If you're looking for some to jam with then hit me and let's make some music!

CALENDAR
Past Events
First solo performance and first scheduled performance on my bongos/vocals. Will be singing 1 song that i've already written and created the beat for.
I'll be performing for about 10-15 mins. I'll do the song then a jam session full of bongo improvisations and vocal improvisations, all done live. The only thing done ahead of time for the jam session is the beat, which will contain no bongo solos or vocals at all! =D
