ABOUT

Hi everyone!
I'm from Portugal, and i have recently arrived in London. I left my band back in Portugal, but i really want to keep doing something related to music.
I want to do music, i want to be in a band, i want to have a band, i want to meet new people, people that i can share my passion with, while i'm growing and learning as a musician and as a person.
And also it would be a good opportunity to me to learn english, (because, although i understand almost everything, i'm still a little bit shy when i talk xD)
The only problem is that I left all my equipment in Portugal, because i couldn't travel with my guitars. Would have to pay extra seats.
I'm planning on buy a guitar soon, just to start doing something, but I didn't find a job yet, so right now I can't spend money.

I have played 3 months on the Oporto subway, have played in a prison (just like Johnny Cash), have played in Oporto's Hard Club (similar to Hard Rock Caffe), have played in "Casa da Música" (which is a major concert hall space in Porto)
and many others small venues.

As a guitar player, i'm no Jimi Hendrix or Jimmy Page, but i give everything i got when i'm playing, because is the only thing in this world that I do with real passion!

Anyway, here are the links of my last band
