Just a ordinary lad who happens to be the Guitarist Extraordinaire for the band BUNS and The ACTION STAR and what not. A Solo Artist in the future hahaha! 

Slow hands embodies the experience of people who have loved and lost, who have tried but failed, and who will love without reason and will accept everything about the one they love.

Since my childhood, music has been somewhat my alter ego, my indistinguishable second self, for I started writing songs when I was 10 years old. I recorded all my compositions on reels/cassette tapes and bound all the lyrics in book form, making up 3 volumes, since 2002. During that time, I was able to write 1,652 songs. In 2006, I used to hangout at BigSkyMind after my work, where I met Julia Clarete, who introduced me to the underground independent music scene. Whenever Julia had a gig, she usually invited all her friends thru text message – “Rakrakan Na Tayo!” and that stuck with me. After a year, I was so busy with my job that I couldn't find the time to attend any gig. It was during the Pulp Summer Slam of 2013 that I again decided to attend the underground independent music scene. The first band to sign the Rakrakan Na Tayo Volume 1 autograph book was The Chongkeys. Later on, I took videos of the live performances of different indie bands.  When my father saw “Rakrakan Na Tayo” on Facebook, he was impressed and encouraged me to write songs again and perform in public. Though it's been more than a decade since I last wrote a song, I promised him that I will sing my new song on his fast approaching birthday, November 7th. However, my flight to Tacloban that day was cancelled and I wasn't able to fulfill my promise. My father did not survive the Yolanda surge the following day. I came back to Cebu from Tacloban City, with a heavy heart, 4 days after the great storm. I was able to write two songs for my father – ”Goodbye Papa” and “The Wrath Of Yolanda”. By January 2014, I wrote more songs and started performing as a solo artist from April 2014 to April 2015. That's over 120 gig shows with indie bands and 26 new songs composed on live music videos. Out of these 26 music videos,  I selected to record 18 demo-songs for my 1st album called "RAKRAKAN NA TAYO",  thru the help of my friend Caroline Walters who did all the mixing of my demo-songs here.  I hope you like it in mp3...  oh yeah wahkokok!
