Drinking with Clowns

Some of us have traveled the world to get here; living experiences good and bad which brought us to a place where the superficial differences, the stereotypes and misconceptions among us disappears. A place where we celebrate each other as people; where we are allow to BE, and forget about our fears. A place where color, background, languages, habits, beliefs and disbeliefs only add to the big picture; adds a voice to the harmony; a new character to the movie. A place that exits in our minds and guards our souls, held together by the unbound energy of music. And is through music, that we want to connect with others, share our experiences, learn yours. Everyday, every moment, we explore life, finding pieces of happiness by experimenting with emotions, laughter and love. We work , live, and dream of peace; and we encourage you to laugh, say ’gracias’ and groove.

La Vida

The lives of five perfect strangers, worlds apart, created musical synergy when Baldo, from Paraguay, working and living in Reno, met Marrio, a former boxer who left Kansas to look for new horizons. Together with friends Baldo and Marrio started jamming and writing music, which developed into a funky fusion of Latin melodies and rhythms with soulful hip-hop and rap. When Kris, who was playing drums with a popular Latin hard rock band, joined the group; lifted the energy to exhilarating levels. Excited, they continued to write the music that made them feel alive. Soon their sound attracted Daniel, who, after touring with a Peruvian Jazz Band, moved to Reno looking for adventures. He joined the band and added his jazzy smooth touch to the music, making the groove even groovier. When all these elements where in place, Junior, a former soldier and Iraq veteran, brought his steady bass to the mix, and make the fusion complete.
