Our Project

The project’s basic premise is to set an acoustic album that describes our musical journey as Guitarists and Composers, now as a duo. The main idea of this recording is to put together a set of nylon guitar styles that covers music from South America, Central America, Spain and Middle Eastern.

We have included some ethnic rhythms like “Chacarera” from Argentina/Chile, “Partido Alto” and “Samba do Rancho” from Brazil, “Bolero” and “Salsa” from Central America as well as “Rumba Flamenca” from Spain, “Gipsy Jazz” and some Middle Eastern rhythms, all fusioned with a twist of Jazz.

As a result of our different influences as musicians is that finally our album has ended as a beautiful world music guitar project.

We had the fortune to count with some of the best musicians of Los Angeles as well as some of the best instrumentists worldwide.

We are so proud to present HISPANICA, a humble rendition to our main engine in life….Music.
