About Me
I am a fingerstyle acoustic guitarist who loves soundscapes with acres of space between the notes. One half of my family comes from Andalusia, the other half from Catalonia. I was born in Foreign Countries. Three souls (at least) are dwelling in my breast. In other words, a kind of uprooted. Thus, it can hardly be a coincidence that I try to melt the boundaries between Spanish guitar and Classical, Blues, Rock and Folk music.
New Single Out: ALL TIME
My new single is a collaboration with awesome Chapman Stick player Andy Salvanos called ALL TIME. It was released on September 25 on Yellow Rose Records.
