Ernesto Ferro

Venezuelan born Ernesto Ferro began playing guitar at the age of eleven. Despite the urging of his father, an Italian violinmaker, to pursue a classical music career, Ernesto rebelled by teaching himself to play the guitar. His association with several different bands began with his own band, ERA. He then progressed to join Krysthos. Later in 1983, he recorded his first album with the band Gillman.

Throughout the 1980's, Ernesto toured Venezuela as the opening act for REO Speed Wagon and Soda Stereo. The 90's brought international touring contracts and studio recordings in places such as New York, Washington DC, Boston, Florida, Italy, and Aruba.

After traveling abroad, Ernesto returned to Venezuela and formed the M. Blues Band. Since his final move to Aruba, Ernesto has been working in the local music circuit with his solo act which consists of everything from Latin and Jazz, to Rumba, Reggae, and Pop/Rock. While performing locally, Ernesto produced the first solo album to come out of his recording studio, Highway Star. He recently finished his second album and it will be available soon.
