About GRIS
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail.
I remember playing the cuatro in a folk band, and later on starting a Ska band playing the drums at the age of 16 with a couple of friends. And after that, I kept a big love for everything percussion.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular?
Alfredo Naranjo, Cosecahndo
Jamiroquai, Emergency On Planet Earth Remastered
Portishead, Roseland, NYC Live
Cosechando my first Latin jazz album that blew my mind, and made me study those rhythms. Emergency On Planet Earth from the one and only Jamiroquai, pure jazzy funk, also made me study those beats. And Portishead made me fall in love with Trip Hop.
