Reviews

Guitars, live acoustic music, in pure state. Influences go from Paco de Lucia, Stevie Vay Vaughn and Jimi Hendrix.

Refined melodic sense, but don´t expect light hearted guitar melodies. 

“Magnífico. Not just a concert , this is an exploration of the essence of Spain, the energy , the drama of the Spanish people. His guitar in his hands speaks more deadly than words.” Rodney White

“Flows effortlessly, expertly allows tension to build with quick delicate melodies to release.  It blurs the lines in between music and pure expression”. Billy Pouki 

“What a journey, the concert and the live acoustic music was immersive.” Victoria Napps

“It was so beautiful”.  Gayatri Raghavan Padma
