Bio: 

Oscar, who is of Guatemalan descent brought with him talent and love of music that spring from childhood of playing a variety of instruments since the age of 5. With inspiration from his heritage, Oscar put together a unique mix of heavy metal, clean guitar & mixed with a hint of Latin flavor. As the word “gifted” doesn’t quite embrace his passion, Oscar gives his music a sound and depth not often heard in Rock music, creating a truly signature sound. 

Oscar has released his Debut CD - "Fruits of the Mourning" and it can be purchased on his website http://www.oscarortega.net or www.myspace.com/oscarortega. Oscar is also teaching guitar in the styles of Rock, Blues, Neoclassical, Shred and Flamenco.  

The Song "Milagro" Reached the #7 spot on the Latin-Jazz Category at soundclick.com!
The Song "April 31st" has been nominated best breakup song by Boise Weekly Newspaper!
