Querencia is traditional Venezuelan song that is part of the album "Caracas", an album that contains only Venezuelan music mixed with progressive metal, jazz fusion and latin.

This song and the "joropo" style (which is in 3/4) is very popular in the rural areas in Venezuela, where I grew up. This is the music that I grew up listening to and I wanted to mix it with my own style of playing.

The footage was filmed by me during my last visit to Venezuela in a urban area in Caracas called "San Agustin" reflecting the life of the people living there.

The techniques I used for this song varies from percussive power chords, double melodies, chord + Melody, regular lead lines. I tried to use as many of my own techniques as I could, but keeping a good flow between parts in the song and the melody always present.

I used an 16-string Kiesel (Two 8-strings joined together), Ernie Ball Strings, Kirlin Cables, and a Line 6 Helix. Standard tuning.

Dedicated to Simon Diaz!!

Special thanks to Raul Colmenarez and Cat Collins.
