Fernando is a versatile and passionate drummer who grew up playing rock, jazz and fusing both styles with Andean Music.
After participating in the "Berlin Jazz Fest 82", he established himself in the Bay Area, re-discovering an "old love" Brazilian Music. He performed extensively with percussionist Chalo Eduardo, and in 1991 he co-founded "Samba do Coracao"
"Today, after four decades of drumming, I continue my musical path with the same devotion, playing with Bolivian Greats and other talented Bay Area Musicians.
