ABOUT THE ARTIST
ESOS PICOS IS A MUSICAL OUTLET FOR THE MUSICIAN, JOSE DAVID LOPEZ, WHO HAS BEEN
WRITING, PERFORMING AND RECORDING HIS OWN MUSIC SINCE HE COULD REMEMBER.
AFTER SOME SUCCESS AS A CLASSICAL PIANIST IN HIS YOUTH, PERFORMING IN WELL RENOWNED VENUES IN NYC AND ABROAD,
HIS TEEN YEARS BROUGHT HIM EXPOSURE TO A VARIETY OF MUSIC GENRES WHICH WOULD CHANGE HIS LIFE AND CAREER.
"GROWING UP NEXT TO NYC WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST GIFTS MY FATHER EVER GAVE ME."
GROWING UP WITH THAT ENDLESS IMMERSION OF DIFFERENT CULTURES AND THE MIX OF SOUNDS THAT COME WITH THAT ,
HAVE UNDOUBTEDLY AFFECTED THE WAY ESOS PICOS WRITES AND PERFORMS MUSIC.
A PROUD COLOMBIAN AMERICAN, THE MUSIC IS A PRODUCT OF JUST THAT.
"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.
FEELINGS OF SEPARATION FROM YOUR OWN, FROM THE CULTURE YOU'RE FROM. AND I THINK THE MUSIC SOMETIMES REFLECTS THAT."
THE TERM ESOS PICOS TRANSLATES TO, "THOSE PEAKS."
"IT'S THOSE PEAKS WE REMEMBER IN OUR DARKEST MOMENTS TO GET US THROUGH.
AND IT'S THOSE LOWS THAT MAKE THEM FEEL SO GOOD."
