Hmmm, where to start...
I'm now 27 and have moved back to Music City, U.S.A.! Born and raised in Nashville, Tennessee into a household full of music! I have an identical twin who has also been blessed with much musical talent and success. In May of '05 I received my Master's in Music Performance from Manhattan School of Music. I had the time of life living on the Upper West Side of Manhattan for two years! So much CULTURE! How can one not love a city that offers tango, salsa, and hip hop at the drop of hat on a weeknight??? Speaking of love, I LOVE to dance - HUGE fan of salsa and latin jazz (Marc Anthony, Maraca, Tito, Spanish Harlem Orchestra), merengue y reggaetton, hip hop - SOME, not all - I'm not into the degradation of men and women, period.
As a professional saxophonist, I spend most of my time onstage here in Nashville playing with a host of wonderful ensembles. I've just released my first solo CD, TRIOSOUL - check out www.thebarberbrothers.com for more info on that! I also am a budding songwriter and perform with salsa, funk and hip hop bands here in the 615 area!
