Bio/ Info (Italiano)
 
 
Iniziai a suonare il pianoforte a 9 anni e quasi subito
scrissi le mie prime canzoni. Avevo un vecchio registratore per quei pezzi, un oggetto davvero divertente. Dovrei condividerlo, un giorno. Nato e cresciuto a Madrid, i viaggi con la famiglia mi portarono prima a Hong Kong, poi Londra. Tornammo in Spagna nel 1996, dove mi unii ai miei fratelli e cugini per formare una teenage band. L’oggetto dei desideri e degli incubi.
 
Fu presto evidente attraverso lo sviluppo musicale e il supporto della famiglia che la musica avrebbe occupato gran parte della mia vita. Dopo un misto di concerti deludenti e abbondanza di situazioni “cosa sarei potuto essere” a metà percorso universitario, mi fu offerta una borsa di studio per andare al Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts.
 
A Liverpool mi mescolai con grandi musicisti, tecnici audio, managers, tutors, studi e promossi le mie aspirazioni musicali. La ‘scouse’ prese la vita e la musica a Liverpool, come una preziosa esperienza complessa con tours, eventi, premi così come i regolari concerti con il mio trio “El Triangulo”. Nel tardo 2005 andai in Brasile a trovare mio fratello che viveva a Sao Paulo.
 

Così ‘Pitinga’ nacque nelle spiagge di Porto Seguro… L’album, comunque, venne registrato sia da Sennheiser che George Martin.

Mi trasferii di nuovo nel sud di Londra nel 2006, e iniziai a suonare regolarmente sia a Londra che fuori, in luoghi come The Bedford, The Cobden Club, The Original Songwriters, The Marqueee, e The Fiddlers Elbow.

l’anno scorso ho collaborato con la band di Bryn Christopher come tastierista, supportando Amy Winehouse nel suo tour inglese e girando anche altre parti della Gran Bretagna. Ho collaborato anche con le maggiori scene spagnole come Javier Ruibal e Los Limones e attualmente sto suonando con Jenny Lynn Smith e Rhys Morgan (recentemente scritturati da Sony BMG).
 
 
Ora ho appena finito di registrare un nuovo EP e sto lavorando sodo per presentare le canzoni in bei luoghi come The Barfly, Soho Revue Bar, 333 Mother Bar e The Regal Room.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
Bio/ Info (English) 
 
I started playing the piano at 9 and almost immediately wrote my first few songs. I have an old tape of those recordings, very funny stuff. I might share it one day.
Born and raised in Madrid, family travels took me to Hong Kong and then London. We moved back to Spain in 1996 where I teamed up with my brothers and a cousin to form a teenage band. The stuff of dreams and nightmares.

Soon it was evident through musical development and family support that music would take up the largest part of my life. After a mixture of anticlimax gigs and plenty of “what could have been” situations half way through University, I was offered a scholarship to go to the Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts.

In Liverpool I mingled with great musicians, sound engineers, managers, tutors, studios, and further developed my musical aspirations. The “scouse” take on life and the buzzing music life in Liverpool served as precious experience involved in tours, events, awards as well as regular gigs with my trio band “El Triangulo”. 
In late 2005 I went to Brazil to visit my brother who was living in Sao Paulo.
 
so “Pitinga” was born in the beaches of Porto Seguro… The album, however, was recorded both at the Sennheiser and George Martin
 
I moved south to London again in 2006, and started playing regularly in and around the London area in venues such as The Bedford, The Cobden Club, The Original Songwriters, the Marqueee, and the Fiddlers Elbow.
 
 For the past year I've been involved with the Bryn Christopher band as keyboard player supporting Amy Winehouse in her UK tour, as well as touring other parts of the UK. I've also been involved with main Spanish acts such as Javier Ruibal and Los Limones and currently I am playing with Jenny Lynn Smith and Rhys Morgan
(recently signed with Sony BMG).
 
 
Right now I've just finished recording a new EP and I'm working hard to showcase the songs in cool venues such as the Barfly, Soho Revue Bar, 333 Mother Bar and The Regal Room
