it was very competitive in Barcelona , but he soon managed to turn it
into a living through gigging in small venues all around Barcelona. When
CoronaVirus hit he went through some tough times in solitude as his
grandmother passed away right after the lockdown began, he then went in a
phase of self reflection and started composing the tracks that make his
EP, titled Monsters I can't control.

EP in itself is very emotional and is all about owning up to your
mistakes before it’s too late and reminding yourself that you are part
of the reasons for the situation you are currently in.
