About Ricardo
About D’Rafael
From a young age Art and music has been the pillars of my life. In music, the guitar became the vehicle to channel the path of my inspiration not to mention that my family has been the sole influence in Art and Music
By the late 1800`s my great grand father and grand father were musicians who traveled through South America playing their own music
I have taught myself to be an Artist in many fields. In music, I have been influenced by Classical, my South American roots, Gypsy Flamenco and other styles. Thanks to time and work and endless inspiration that motivates me I have achieved a unique and personal sound.
