About Me

Born and raised in Buenos Aires and then relocated in the US, inspired musically in the midst of the chaos and magic of the cities of Buenos Aires, Boston, Miami, New York & São Paulo. There are not too many latin artists who embrace music the way Diego does. Guitar player, singer, composer, producer, poet, filmmaker, Diego has mixed Urban Soul Music with rock, funk, pop and Brazilian rhythms. He can take you on a journey mixing English, Spanish and Portuguese. His music is, as he describes it, songs with jazzy chords, R&B beats, in a singer/ songwriter format… in Spanish. Diego’s music has taken him to stages from all around the world to places such as New York, Puerto Rico, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Mexico City, Boston, Los Angeles, Miami, Bangalore, New Delhi, Mumbai and Buenos Aires and allowed him the honor to work and play with such artists like Christina Aguilera, Erykah Badu, Jon Secada, Antonio Sanchez (Pat Metheny Group), Bobby Thomas Jr. (Weather Report), Leo Brooks (John Legend) among others. His versatile style has been the vehicle to endorsements by the most reputable brands in the music industry like Godin Guitars, ESP Guitars, Dean Markley strings, Seymour Duncan Pickups, Digitech & Gibson Guitars. Besides this honors, Diego has the privilege to be a voting member of both NARAS and LARAS, responsible for the Grammys® and Latin Grammys Awards respectively. His latest project, a witty reversioning machine, delivers an amazingly full sound, with only three artists on stage. The trio will bring from a whole big band to The Beatles into a soul power trio.

Review:

From the Miami New Times

Though South Florida guitarist/singer/songwriter Diego debut full-length is self-released, it sounds professional, capturing a jam-heavy but song-oriented slice of the local world beat scene. The ten tunes rest on a laid-back pop-rock vibe spiced up with Latin percussion and a heavy dose of contemporary jazz. The driving force is the bandleader's nimble-fingered guitar work, impressively skittering up and down the instrument's neck while still maintaining a syncopated rhythm. Lyrics here are entirely in Spanish, and Diego's noticeable Argentine accent is charming. Each track features a large rotating cast of guest players, lending a bit of a party vibe, while still sounding smooth. Sometimes, however, things get too smooth, with the production turning overly slick. It doesn't suit such a heavily textured sound, with the energy of bright brass and slap bass just begging to burst through. Still, the fierce grassroots, collaborative spirit evident here shows Diego and his cohorts might be onto a ripe, new funky fusion South Florida sound. Miami New Times wrote on Tue, 19 Jan 2016
