Fernando Antonio Ferrer Cruz ha sido un joven pionero entre la nueva
cosecha de cantautores en Puerto Rico. Se presenta por primera vez al
público en Lares '97 y desde entonces ha dado a conocer su música dentro y
fuera de la Isla. Natural de San German, Ferrer toma de los gigantes de la
Nueva Trova de los '70, pero ha desarrollado tambien un lenguaje propio
dentro de su trabajo. Su ataque percutivo en la guitarra y sus
impresinantes habilidades vocales junto al buen uso de melodía e imagenes
poéticas tan sutiles como impactantes situan su música en un contexto mucho
más amplio.

Fernando Antonio Ferrer Cruz has been a young pioneer among the new breed
of singer-songwriters in Puerto Rico. He first appeared on stage in Lares
'97 and from then on has gotten himself known all around the Island and
abroad. Originally from San German, Ferrer draws from the social justice
Nueva Trova giants of the '70s but has also developed his own language
within his work. His percussive guitar technique and impressive vocal
abilities together with the good use of subtle yet powerful melody and
poetic imagery puts this small-towner's music in a much wider context.
