In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My first musical memories are in a car driving through the Atacama Desert, listening to Julio Iglesias' music while resting on my mother's lap. My first songs were inspired by Los Tres' unplugged album, wich i performed with my brother.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? 2 Minutos, Valentin Alsina Lucinda Williams, Happy Woman Blues The Flying Burrito Brothers, Hot Burritos! The Flying Burrito Brothers Anthology (1969 - 1972) I chose Flying Burrito Brothers and Lucinda Williams because they are the albums that have inspired my career musically and Valentín Alsina from 2 minutes because it inspired me to form a band and play.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Valles Transversales” Valles Transversales was a song that marked my path, and I would say that it was the first with a totally personal stamp but that maintained the folk and country spirit. It is a song that invokes redemption in the form of a journey.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Playing at Primavera Sound, Barcelona in 2014 and SXSW in 2015 are some of the highlights of my career. Releasing music on 12" and 7" vinyl. What I remember most are the trips, like playing in the Strait of Magellan or next to a river in Sao Paulo.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? What I would most like to do is tour the United States and Mexico with my band and perhaps play for the Austin City Limits audience.
