“I feel, live and breath music with every inch of my skin. It´s the healthiest of my vicies, and the best psicologycal and sentimental therapy. To write songs is more a necesity than a task. I don´t have a scheduele to write songs, but a lot of experiencies to tell and to exorcise.”

I hope to share feelings with you, I hope you could built your oen stories based on what I´ve told you in my songs, I want to be your partner and lover. Let´s walk this path together, let´s have the certainty that is easier between two.”
