STORY OF MY LIFE,
I've been a musician since I was 6, been that I would be hitting my mother's cooking pans it was decided by my parents that a real drum set would be more appropiate so played drums at first for a couple of years. My first music teacher only lasted a couple of weeks been that I was a spoiled brat, but thats all I needed apperantly cause thats all it took for me to keep it going and learn by ear what I could and alot of practicing.
Then when I was 9 I decided to learn piano and keyboards, Yes I had a very old nice lady as a piano teacher, but again it seems music teachers some how only last for a short period of time so I learned what I could and again ear learning and alot of practicing took place.
When I was 14 learning guitar was a challenge and still is but love playing it and I would say its what I feel more confortable playing, This time I had found a teacher that couldn't get rid of me, my grandfather. Yes he teached me bolero style and bossanova. The singing came along with the guitar oh and a small detail, the rule from my teacher was either you sing or you wont get teached anymore guitar chords. Some how after all of that hard practice and learning I grew some wings and I met the style that would be my favorite "Rock". My grandfather hated it...lol...but some how he knew he had lost me to rock style music, which really isn't true. I honestly dig all sorts of style thanks to him, and truly believe that fusion of styles work out greatly.
Next came the inevitable. My first band at the age of 15, played covers for a couple of years and in parallel working at recording studios as a producer, nothing big but it helped me a whole lot to understand how to put all the pieces together in a song.
After, some of my co members in covers and myself decided to form a band which has lasted 8 years and still no big break for us, but cant regret it, best years of my life lots of fun, you can check those songs at www.myspace.com/hornyfrog
Right now Im working on an alternate project with music I've recorded in my studio, can't stop creating music, this is what I've been doing up to now.
Auditioned for a signed band with Skin Records from Europe and out of around 18 singers made it up to been of the top 3, close but no big break yet.
