“There's a moment when you come to a certain point, and if you make the leap you get to the big leagues. But if you back away, you get stuck.”
“I don't like making things too complicated when writing songs. I want to write in a very easy language that many people will understand.”
“A record can make an artist sound in tune or make the music sound pretty. But the real test is performing live, and I think we pass fairly well, because people keep asking to see us play.”
“No, I don't want them to remove my scar. Scars are cool.”
“Let's treasure our roots, even when we're far away.”
“The Macorinos and me - there's a big space between our generations. The people I was used to work with, we will do everything faster. And the Macorinos were more, like, calm. They were patient with music, and they were paying a lot of attention to the details.”
“It's great to compose music just for my own enjoyment, but that I have been able to make a lot of new friends, have shows everywhere, and get to know so many places all thanks to music is impressive to me.”
“Anything that gives us pain can be transformed into this, into beautiful moments shared with friends.”
“I learned that life is about living and enjoying and all of that made me connect to music in whole other level.”
“Los Macorinos are much older than I am so when you surround yourself with older people you realize they lived what we're living now. They live in a moment of peace because they don't have to prove anything anymore.”
“Tus Ojitos' is an incredible and romantic Peruvian waltz; I tried to make it appear that the heart is singing.”
“I feel very, very happy, super-proud to be able to perform and share my music and what I do.”
“I had to learn about patience, to let the music get its own spirit and voice.”
“Coco' is a really amazing movie. The research was made with so much respect. I enjoyed the movie because I know about what they are talking about. I am really proud to be part of the film.”
“When people get emotional and sing the song with you - it's an incredible thing.”
“I don't really focus on if what I'm writing is pop or not. I just write music and then I try to figure out how to arrange the things that I write.”
“I feel I've been faithful to my convictions and my desires. I've taken small, firm steps and I try to do things as beautiful and artistically as I can.”
“It's always good to receive recognition for your work.”
“I really want to become, like, a composer for my people, my country that will photograph the things that are happening now in story and in life and love but not only, like, the love of a couple, you know, the love in general.”
“I wanted to make 'Mexicana Hermosa.' It's a love song, but it isn't. It's more like a song as if Mexico was the Maria, the beautiful woman that I love.”
