I bring my own sound system for small to medium venues (up to ~100 people), including mic and guitar amp. If the venue has sound gear, even better!
I don’t provide lighting, so I rely on the venue’s setup for that.
Please note, if I need to bring and set up my own sound equipment, there will be an additional fee.

do not provide a Spotify or DJ service before or between sets. However, I’m happy to coordinate with the venue or event organizer if they want to arrange background music or a playlist during those times.

One of the best gigs I’ve ever done was at a large theater on Avenida Corrientes in Buenos Aires. It was an inspiring event full of young entrepreneurs, with a vibrant and engaged audience. Performing in such a prestigious venue and connecting with a motivated crowd made it a truly memorable experience.

I love playing at small, cozy events like private parties and weddings. It’s great to connect with people and set a relaxed vibe. I also enjoy mixing it up—sometimes smooth background tunes, other times more upbeat songs for dancing.

I’ve played at different theaters and cultural events in Buenos Aires, Mexico, and Spain. I started music as a teenager, and bit by bit it became my main way of expressing myself and my biggest passion. I began just singing, but quickly got really excited about playing guitar to accompany myself—that’s what I love most about my music. It’s been great to connect with people through this intimate, personal style.

I’ve been really inspired by some amazing artists from jazz, bossa nova, and Latin music like Ella Fitzgerald, Antonio Carlos Jobim, João Gilberto, Chavela Vargas, and Caetano Veloso. I also love classic pop legends like The Beatles and Stevie Wonder — their melodies and vibes really influence how I play and sing.
If I had to pick a favorite, it’d probably be Ella Fitzgerald because of her awesome voice and emotion.
The greatest song: “My Favorite Things” — such a beautiful, timeless song that always lifts my spirits.

Setup time usually takes around 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the venue and soundcheck requirements.
My typical performance length is 1.5 hours, which can be adjusted if needed.
I’m flexible with starting times and can adapt to event schedules, including breaks if the show is longer.
For events requiring multiple sets, I can coordinate timing to suit the program.

We’re happy to perform outside, but we ask for shade, a flat and level surface, and a power supply close to the performance area to ensure the best sound quality and comfort.

I have a well-curated setlist of jazz, bossa nova, pop classics, and boleros that I regularly perform, which works well for most events. However, I’m always happy to discuss song requests or tailor the repertoire to fit the mood and preferences of the client or event. Flexibility is important to create the perfect atmosphere.

Clients often tell me that my performances feel really warm and personal, like a special moment just for them. They say my voice and guitar create a cozy, relaxed vibe that fits perfectly with dinners, celebrations, or just a chill evening. Many have told me they felt emotionally connected to the music, which makes me really happy because that’s what I try to bring every time I play.
