Biography

Well I'm xavoblues, and music has been my passion since I can remember. I started playing guitar when I was 14, like 22 years ago!! God it's been a long time, but at that time I didn't know anything about music theory or stuff like that, I just played some Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and Zeppelin riffs just like everybody else.
Anyway, I fell in love with the guitar and started listening and playing anything I could, I love everything about the instrument so all the songs I write start out in a guitar, always.
I have played in some bands over the years and right now I'm starting a new project, I hope I can talk about this later, when everything gets into place.
Although my favorite genres have always been rock and blues I'm very open minded to all kinds of music, my listening playlists are so varied that I don't think anyone could stand hearing them with me.
So if you get to listen to my iTunes library you'll hear a wide range of music from Metal to classic rock, classical, flamenco, blues, jazz, pop, latin (a lot of latin music), and a very large etc. As you can see, anything goes, the only thing that almost everything I like have in common is the use of the guitar. Of course, my all time heroes are Randy Rhoads, Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Eric Clapton, B.B. King, Paco de Lucia, Santana, Steve Vai, Eric Johnson, Eddie Van Halen, Django Reindhartd, Al Di Meola, Wes Montgomery, Zakk Wylde, Heitor Villalobos, Tom Morello and so on.

I have written a lot of music but I never had the chance to record it in a good studio or anything. Since I discovered GarageBand things started to change and now I'm producing new stuff (although I have posted only one song recorded in this software). I love recording and producing, I don't have a lot of experience in this field, everything I've done has come out of experimentation and trial and error, you know, so I hope my producing skills will improve with my new songs.
So please listen to my songs and tell me if you like them or not, and if you can, give me some tips to improve it, I will always be thankful.
Music for me is not just entertainment or a hobby, it is like breathing, I can't think of an instant in my life that doesn't come with music, for me it is as spiritual as religion, as physical as sports and as passionate as sex, it means the whole world to me.
