I started humming songs that my mother was singing while doing her home chores. These music included church songs, as well contemporary music played on the radio. From my mother side of the family there is several musicians and they have a Norteno band that currently is working writing songs. From my father mother's I give credit to the Sanchez family, who has several musicians that have play music as a habit and inspired to be artist.
The Rodriguez family moved to USA on June of 1965. I entered Van Nuys Junior High in the fall of that year. I befriended the Alonzo family whom had two adolescent boys' that were practicing music and had a cussing who was playing the guitar. I started to practice with the three family members and soon developed a band. The focus of the band was in playing mostly contemporary ballads played by groups like Los Fredis, Apson, and a few Rancheras.
I was always thinking about making a band and acquired two more musicians from Van Nuys High School that played trombone and alto saxophone. We started to play in weddings and local ballrooms, soon three other members were added to the band and the band started to focus more on English songs and eventually lost its cohesiveness. I enrolled in voice classes at Valley College and continued singing during family gatherings especially during Christmas Holiday's.
I met my wife Basilia during an outing at a ballroom, I asked her to dance and the rest is history, soon we got married and have three boy's making difficult to pursue my music career, I focused on working and getting an education. I never gave up on my dream to be a singer, I continued to practice solo at my parents home and letter in my home were I eventually wrote songs. I earned a Doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology, I have a private practice and teach part time at CSUN. I completed my first Album/CD name "ES Amor". It was produced by Siavash Shams at Valley Studios in Van Nuys, CA.
I would like to focus the next stage of my life in writing and recording music, I feel very comfortable singing to audiences of all ages. I have been a guest on the following talks shows, three times in the Christina Show, several times in the Los Angeles Al Dia, a televi
