BIOGRAPHY

I was born in Tarragona in 1971 and I have lived in Madrid for more than 15 years. I started to study computer science, but I knew right away that my thing was (it always had been) music and I have been a professional bassist and double bass player for 25 years. I have studied at the Taller de Músics (Barcelona). I have also studied harmony with Lluís Vergés and electric bass with Pep Pérez Cucurella. In September 1998 I received a scholarship from the Berklee College of Music where I had the opportunity to study with Óscar Stagnaro (Paquito d'Rivera).
