Faith! In your life you will find people that believe in you and support you. These are the people you listen to. But the most important things is for you to believe in yourself. There's a saying: the harder I try, the luckier I get. I realized early on that to be successful in music was going to be a real challenge. I started by creating my first CD, Sol Luna Tierra, and playing locally at restaurants. I sent my CD to as many record companies in my genre that I could. Finally a record company in California signed me in 1999. Now my CDs are available around the world and I'm playing concerts across North America.
