Jonathan Levi (vocals, rhythm guitar) was born and raised in the mountainous town of Kaneohe, Hawaii. Growing up on Oahu, home of the infamous Waikiki, Jonathan nurtured his love for music. He began his long musical journey at the tender age of six when he was accepted into a popular local singing group known as “The Honolulu Boy Choir”. It was here that Jonathan had his first taste of performing in front of an audience. Although stage fright evoked every twitch of every muscle in his body, Jonathan felt the exhilarating feeling of giving and receiving on a spiritual level. Jonathan continued strengthening his vocal capabilities through out his childhood and eventually took his hand at playing the ukulele. It was at 15 when Jonathan wrote his first song and realized that he had something to share. After learning how to play the guitar, Jonathan further developed himself as an artist with a voice by moving to the diverse city of San Francisco. While living in this eclectic city, Jonathan has taken advantage of both Vocal and Band workshops as well as the local San Francisco open mic scene. He continues to thrive and pursue his dreams in hopes of musically connecting with all those who are receptive to the messages that are written.

Jacobo Barreiro (lead guitar) was born in the town of Vigo, Galicia, which is located in the northwestern part of Spain. At the age of 14, Jacobo became very intrigued with music. He taught himself how to read music with the help of some old music score books and a tiny electronic keyboard. Jacobo picked up his first guitar at 15 years old and immediately fell head over heels. Shortly after, Jacobo joined the Conservatory Of Music in Spain where he attended for 4 years. Within that span of time, he found a deep appreciation for many different genres of music, primarily Jazz. It wasn’t long before Jacobo found himself playing in multiple bands, ultimately leading him to become a full time, traveling musician. Touring all over Spain has helped Jacobo to hone his craft and to soak up the styles of jazz, funk, blues, pop, rock and acoustic. After a few years of living the musician lifestyle, Jacobo had found a secondary passion in 3D animation and VFX. While putting music on the back burner for quite some time, Jacobo felt a void and sense of incompletion. The revelation that music would always be his number one creative outlet rang incessantly in his ear. Jacobo gave in to that voice and realized as life often takes you down different trails, all roads lead back to your hearts desire.
