Tell us about yourself and your music
I’m a simple guy with all fashion Values, I have been writing songs since I was a child. I like to write about my own experience and some other people tell about it or I see, but the most important thing is that I try to write lyrics with meaning, a song that you can feel identify with, and try to make it authentic. I can tell you that I write and sign from the bottom of my heart trying to connect with other people’s hearts . and by the way I love old fashion rock and roll, Journey, queen, led zeppelin, Eagles, Motley Crue, ACDC, etc.
Talk to us more about your latest release
Fly high is a super special song for me, is to honor my nephew who passes 3 years ago on a crash accident in Tennessee, in his 3rd anniversary I was drinking some beers and couple of whiskeys and I just wrote what I was feeling, when you lose somebody that you love that much your only comfort is to believe that he is somehow in a better place and you will see him someday.
What inspired you to write this release?
the pain for the loss of my nephew.
Describe the writing and recording process
LOL this is the complicated part!!! my guitar partner Vito Presiozi, is over the sea in Venezuela, my producer Miguel Pena is in Atlanta and I am here in Texas, so the processes toke 5 months, first My piano guy, Javier Cardenas record all the Pianos and strings, and the files flow to Venezuela thru internet for the guitars by the way the guitar solo is mind-blowing!!!! , once Vito was done I recorded in Texas drums, bass, and voices, once I was finished the files flow to Atlanta where Miguel Pena did his magic. and finally, FLY HIGH was done. I get tired just to remember the process. LOL
