Biography Picture & Downloads


I have been playing guitar since the age of 14. Actually i started playing the piano when i was 13 and my mom forced me to start learning music which i did for a period of 2 years.
Then i switched to guitar after seeing a flamenco player on tv that i thought what he was playing was so cool.
I practiced hard in my room for hours on end. the guitar was my life and i was a part of it or Vs versa.
From there it was a good ride and experience for me. I was in a lot of bands and performed clubs and concert halls.
In 1999 i decided to take a break from music and guitar, in fact it was a long break which lasted 6 years. It was just recently that i started to compose and play music again.
In those 6 years i knew that something was missing from my life and it was my music and my talent for guitar.
My friends, girl friend and my cousin pushed me to start making music again cause they saw that my talent is to great to be hidden like that.
Currently im finishing up my album Rise and all songs and future material will be posted on soundclick.
 

Do you play live?
Playing live on stage is a magical time for me.
I can sense the energy from the audience and its just fule me up.
I always prefered playing live and play it as is than recording in the studio. Its more freedom of expression and direct contact with the audience which gives it a magical moment of emotions and adrenaline.
 

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
When the times come and the deal is right i welcome it.

My first band was the STRANGERS in 88, performed in clubs.

Currently im writing and recording my solo demo album RISE.
