At the age of 24, he moved to New York, where he currently lives. In summer 2007 he started working on his first album; Songs of Want and Loss. After releasing his songs on YouTube and MySpace, his song Freeze my senses was selected by the Advertising agency "Ricardo Pérez Asociados" for the television advertisement they were preparing for the Spanish Christmas Lottery campaign for 2008.
