Muy didáctico y divertido Adrián!
Although Adrián was born in Madrid, his influences are wide-ranging, from Brian Wilson and Paul McCartney to Ryuichi Sakamoto, Schubert, and Mahler. Everything he enjoys listening to finds its way into his creative process.
Suko has performed extensively in Madrid’s indie rock scene, appearing at venues such as Sala Villanos, Sala Clamores, Moby Dick, and Sala Moe. His music, however, has taken him far beyond his hometown. He occasionally collaborates with artists in Los Angeles and Minneapolis and has toured the United States alongside his friend, the acclaimed saxophonist Nelson Devereaux.
