First of all, what is lattitude?
Music has been my safety valve. Either with a guitar and a looper or with any object that can make sounds, alone or with a band. Among many bands I tried in the past, Lattitude, Athens, GA, 2013-2018, and Los Amantes de Lucía, Bogotá, 1994-1996 were my favorites.
Below are some pictures and videos of Lattitude. The band members were first and foremost my friends: Roberto Palomares, Frans Weiser, Jaiker Cham, Marisela Rodriguez, Jonathan Baillehache, and Richard Gordon. Sadly, while you go through it, you do not think much about capturing memories. We had many great performances that were but fleeting moments, lost in eternity like tears in the rai… wait, is that line from a movie?
