Why this name?
Easy to remember.
Do you play live?
Our US tour has been cancelled, due to the current crisis.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It will revolutionize the music scene. I sincerely think that it has enabled new artists a international platform to present new music. Having signed to IWR/Latin in July, I thank soundclick.com, mp3.com, T1MSN, for giving me a chance that I probably would not have had.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
YES,NO,MAYBE
Your influences?
Stevie Ray Vaughn, Jose Feliciano, Miami Sound Machine, and Barnie Kessel, Santana, Al Dimeola and dreams of the heart.
Favorite spot?
Miami, Chicago, New York City, Mexico City, Cabo, Cancun, Mulege, Rosarito, St.Louis, Seattle, Polermo. Anywhere there's an audience to play for.
Equipment used:
"I play a Fender Strat, and a Yamaha SE700S"Lady", and I prefer Peavey amp wise. Acoustically, I play a single cutaway guitar that was made in Jalisco, Mexico. I just started using a new E300 Washburn for live gigs"(Miguel).
Anything else...?
Miguel Cruz and Guille Garcia have collectively put 7 tracks on the top of international mp3 charts this year.
