In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Dad strumming a guitar and singing old Argentine folk songs at parties we weren't allowed to as kids. Kneeling down over the air vent to hear the music coming from downstairs, and it was magical. I wanted to create music in some way my whole life. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Buena Vista Social Club, Buena Vista Social Club Cat Stevens, Teaser and the Firecat Dire Straits, Brothers In Arms (Remastered) I loved Cat Stevens songs since I was 12, The Wind is one of my favorites. My college years were difficult emotionally and Brothers in Arms was just the right escape, with its cinematic sounds and moods. Buena Vista Social Club: the BEST EVER music. 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. “Night is Closing in (Demo Version)” Its the first song I ever wrote, ca 2011. Every word is true, about a recurring dream. It's the only solo song (demo) I've published, though I previously published an EP called The Alchemist's Journey under the artist (duo) named Luna. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Someone wrote a poem during a concert, based on one of the songs they heard, and sent it to me. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I have no idea how to answer this apple! I'm not out there touring and making a living from my music, that is admirable and kind of overwhelming. I'm keeping life simple, creating music and getting to play it with and for other people is my passion.
