​ABOUT THE ARTIST

ESOS PICOS IS A MUSICAL OUTLET FOR THE MUSICIAN, JOSE DAVID LOPEZ.

JOSE HAS BEEN WRITING, PERFORMING AND RECORDING FROM AN EARLY AGE.

AFTER SOME SUCCESS AS A CLASSICAL PIANIST IN HIS YOUTH, PERFORMING IN WELL RENOWNED VENUES ACROSS NYC AND ABROAD, HIS TEEN YEARS BROUGHT HIM EXPOSURE TO A VARIETY OF GENRES WHICH WOULD EXPAND HIS LOVE AND KNOWLEDGE OF ALL THINGS MUSIC.

"GROWING UP NEXT TO NYC WAS ONE OF THE MANY GREAT GIFTS MY FATHER GAVE ME. BEING A TRAIN RIDE AWAY FROM A HAVEN FOR LOVERS OF MUSIC, ART AND HUMAN RIGHTS REPRESENTED IN ENDLESS WAYS HAS BEEN AMAZING.”

GROWING UP WITH THAT ENDLESS IMMERSION OF DIFFERENT CULTURES AND THE SOUNDS THAT ARISE FROM SUCH AN ENVIRONMENT HAS SHAPED ESOS PICOS, A PROUD COLOMBIAN AMERICAN, WHO STILL RESIDES IN NY.

"I LIKE PUSHING AGAINST NOTIONS OF HOW IMMIGRANTS FROM MY BACKGROUND SHOULD ACT OR SOUND LIKE MUSICALLY. LIKE MANY OTHERS GROWING UP IN THE U.S. WITHIN A CULTURALLY DIFFERENT HOUSEHOLD, THE EXPERIENCE CAN BE ALIENATING BUT REWARDING. IT CERTAINLY CREATES A UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE OF THE WORLD AROUND YOU. I THINK THE MUSIC REFLECTS THAT."

THE NAME ESOS PICOS TRANSLATES TO, THOSE PEAKS.

"IT'S THOSE PEAKS WE REMEMBER IN OUR DARKEST MOMENTS TO GET US THROUGH. IT’S THOSE EMOTIONAL PEAKS IN ART AND MUSIC THAT NESTLE INTO YOUR HEART AND SOUL. AND IT’S THOSE PEAKS IN ARTISTIC AND MUSICAL ENDEAVORS THAT KEEP YOU  REACHING FOR HIGHER LEVELS OF CREATIVE EXPRESSION.”​
