Metal has been a fundamental part of who I am as a person and in my life: a refuge, a source of strength and purpose. Being able to express it on stage at @chilevision and @misschilemundo was an opportunity I deeply value.

It was a great experience to break down barriers on open television, inspire, be real with it and show that you don’t have to fear the prejudices of others.

Thanks to my band @carlospalmaofficial and @decessus_official for accompanying me and to everyone who has shown their support horns up.
