***Hago lo que no puedo evitar hacer. Miro al cielo y veo pájaros y estelas de algo que ya pasó y está aún por venir. La magia. Miro tus ojos y veo lo mismo. No me siento de ningún lugar, quizá de todas partes. Uno va probando, pues todo cambia. No busco la perfección en absoluto, sino la frescura y la captura del momento en que la voz y los textos se encuentran con la música. El Cantante Mudo aprende a cruzar los pasos de cebra sin ser cebra y lo que sabe del vino sólo lo entiende cuando bebe... 'Vivir es equivocarse/ salir mal en la foto' (F Pino)// Libros: "El Lejano Oeste", "Eclipse", "La Ronda", "Nómadas" o "El Cantante Mudo"- Premio de la crítica de poesía, entre otros, he escrito letras para otros artistas. En 1996 empiezo una aventura de spoken word y canciones, grabo los discos "La Mejor Hora" -1999- Garcin y Troupe; el disco-libro "Vash Gon" -2000, cubic- con Carlos Carrasco; el disco "Tan fiero tan frágil" -2003- con M; y la antología "Tiempo y Detalles" -Comboi Records, 2007- con 8 temas nuevos grabados en 2005 y 2006 como "A Woman", "Time and Details", "Haz caso solo a los Paréntesis", "The Second Rain", y 10 temas de años y discos anteriores. En estos discos han tocado músicos como Carlos Carrasco, Jesús Maestro, Raquel G. Fas, La Gran Esperanza Blanca, UHF, Maribel Crespo, Pedro Aznar, M, Jordi Lozone, Edu Marin...
***ENGLISH: I look at the sky and I can see the birds and the jetstream of something that has passed away and is coming back soon. The magic. I look at your eyes and I can see the same thing. I'm the mutesinger, a fan for the winter, a raindrop for your umbrella. I'm not looking for any kind of perfection at all, but that moment when music, words and music fly together... ***I began writing poetry and prose. I've had several books published like "Eclipse", "El Lejano Oeste", "Nomadas" or "El Cantante
Mudo" -awarded by book circle Critics Award-, and I have written lyrics for other artists over the years. In 1996 I began to work with musicians -la troupe- showing my songwritings in public. My recorded and released records are: "La Mejor Hora" -Seminola records, 1999-; "Vash Gon" -cdbook, Cubic, 2000-; "Tan fiero tan fragil" -Arteria 2003- and the anthology "Tiempo y Detalles. 1996-2006" -Comboi records, 2007- that includes 8 new songs recorded between 2005 and 2006, "A Woman", "Time and Details", "Haz caso solo a los Parentesis", "The Second Rain"...

HI Fernando ..thanks for the words and the picture..great! I been working on my own record these days hope to have it out by the spring...will send you some music before for your ears..hope you are well my friend..peace!
New songs are always great. I like being busy but not too busy that I can't sit down and sip some tea with a lovely book. That's my definition of home. I'm actually going to meet a client who wants to do an autumnal themed photo shoot, and I'm really anxious and excited about it. Also, good to hear your leg is much better. My knee is always sore and creaky from running and falling too often in the snow of Colorado. Anyway, I added your friend, I love the photographs, they are very interesting and vibrant. Have you seen "Spain: On the road again"? It's a show with chef Mario Batali and Gwyneth Paltrow, and they go everywhere in Spain and learn about the cuisine, history, art, and architecture. It's quite good, I think. Thought you might enjoy this- “Body cells replace themselves every month. Even at this very moment. Most everything you think you know about me is nothing more than memories.” — Haruki Murakami
Hey, how have you been? My days are fine, just busy with small things here and there but nothing I couldn't try to handle...I grow weary at time but it comes and goes. I'm booking photo jobs for autumn, and I'm hoping to get more because the light is so intense and incredible, it makes me want to tear up inside. Murakami is really addictive, I have to agree. I read three of his books in a row. I can't get enough. It sounds great, you know, that you're going to the south of spain. It actually sounds incredible. Anyway I checked out his flickr and I really like it. Do you think I should be his contact on there? I'd like to see what else he adds to it. Thanks, I hope you have a great weekend as well as a nice autumn full of seasonal foods and drinks, which are my favorite.
Qué alegría Fernando tener noticias tuyas! me alegra que la ausencia sea sólo debida al trabajo, eso es una buena señal en los tiempos que corren.
A mi me ocurre un poco lo mismo, un cambio de localización de mi lugar de trabajo me deja mucho menos tiempo del que me gustaría.
Sólo espero que todo te vaya estupendamente y que continues escribiendo esas maravillas que escribes para que podamos seguir regalándonos, los que tanto apreciamos tu trabajo,
