Hey, I’m Diego, if you’re here you’ve probably listened to some of my music, which I’m very glad you did (if you did) and hope you enjoyed. You may know me from one of my bands (Valentine’s Cigarettes, Noir et Blanc or Chill Pillz) but this is my solo project. Let me tell you a little bit about myself, I’ve been playing music since I started toying around with the piano at age four, and slowly started picking up more instruments. It wasn’t until 2017 when at the age of thirteen I decided to perform at a school talent show playing a cover of Panic! At The Disco’s “This is Gospel” on the piano and singing. That’s when I formed a band named Valentine’s Cigarettes with fellow musicians Diego Barbosa, Matias Jalil and Daniel Ceballos (Who would later join my current band Chill Pillz). We played for a while until I left to Quebec for a year, where I played guitar in a band (Noir et Blanc) with and participated in the Secondaire en Spectacle contest where we reached the regional final
