We had the good fortune of connecting with Matthew Torres and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Matthew, what led you to pursuing a creative path professionally?
Music has always been more than just a creative expression for us, it is a passion, a reason to keep going, and brings us all together.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
Each one of us is extremely different. First there’s me Matthew, a rapper, lyricist, and vocalist; next there’s Robin a drummer, vocalist and lyricist; Vanessa, a vocalist and lyricist who is very well-versed in music theory; and finally Omar, a guitarist, producer and vocalist.

We all have extremely different backgrounds with music and even music tastes but are able to come together and create this beautiful overlap between the four of us.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
In my personal opinion it’s more about the people than the place, so I would probably introduce said friend to all the amazing people I know and maybe even take them to Shibaro’s (Omar’s) home studio where we record and vibe.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
Each one of our families and friends who continue to support us and push us to be better versions of ourselves.
