CURRENT MISSION

To Live. To meet People, To dance, to love, to play music, to drink, to eat, to share, to talk.

ABOUT ME

Well let's see...I'm a music lover and a musician first and formost. What I like about music besides playing it and listening to it, it's the hanging out, the sharing and the learning. Im crazy about folk, country-rock, rock&roll, classical, classic rock, tango, folklore and more.
I work both as a musician and as a journalist. The journalism is something that came to me unexpectedly into my life but I love it.
I love to read, Im a huge fan of the beat generation, which at some point in my life it took me to travel and live in San Francisco, California for a while. I busked for a living and learned a lot from the other street musicians down in the train station.
I love movies and tv shows, probably way too much for my own good hahaha. I like going out, meeting new people, talking and laughing.
I have a band here in Argentina called "Fede Petro & The Monkeyness". This band is the most amazing band I've ever played with, great musicians and friends.

PHILOSOPHY

Be Yourself.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Meeting a bum on the street who told me the key points to being a good, strong, smart musician. He taught me valuable lessons that I'll never forget.
Camping and cooking is one of the most intense, fun experiencies I can name. This one time in California, after a fantastic meal and drinking, talking and playing music, we just put our sleepings bags right under the clear sky and I fell asleep watching the stars. It sounds hella corny, I know, but still I had never seen or experienced a feeling like that.

Teach, Learn, Share

It's never too late for anything. I want to learn more from the people and the world. I love talking, sharing good stories, playing and sharing music.
It's always really rewarding the whole of experience of meeting someone new.
