about me
Aguafuego
the brainchild of JBeatz is an evolving coming together of unique combinations of musicians to interpret her music.

This songwriter/lyricist/singer /instrumentalist is dedicated to developing a new sound rooted not only in her South-American heritage but also encompassing her background in classical- reggae- rock- jazz- world- hip hop- latin and folk music.

With original songs in Spanish and in English- Aguafuego brings a global mix of sounds that create a soulful blend a tapestry for the timely lyrics and alluring melodies of JBeatz.

Music Style: JBeatz combines Natalie Merchant's rich vocals- the powerful lyrics of Bob Marley, and the soul of Gil Scot-Heron. Oaxerai brings the funk and hip hop grooves to the drums. Alex firmly roots the music with his rhythmically melodic bass lines while Joseph pulls it all together with a touch of blues and jazz.

Hello friends,

I'm pretty excited about this- My song, "Anew" has been one of several songs selected to advance to the next round of judging in the 2005 International Songwriting Competition within the Singer-Songwriter/Folk category. There were almost 15,000 entries. Wish me luck on the next round!
