"I always liked adventuring into different musical styles. I tried to know different styles and searched my own musical identity going through many sources. Even being rock, I tried to include my natural music, the 'Brasileiras' music.
This work is the result of all this willing. Wish to create, to play and to live a music that I always listened, played and dreamed to be able to play. An art that cannot be dominated one day to another and that I need too much dedication and effort to this exspected moment show people and let my mark, even small, in the huge world of the musical art."
