A little bit of who I am
Franko Torres

Hello there! My name is Franko Torres and I'm a 23 years young guitarist and guitar instructor from Puerto Rico who began to play the guitar at the age of 14. Discovering a passion for music and the instrument like no other, I decided to pursue music as my career and have been doing so ever since. I've done session work, taught and played all around Puerto Rico in some of the biggest venues, and toured a few parts of the US. In mid 2018 I was part of the band Constantly Crashing's debut EP titled I AM. Later on also playing with a few other artists including but not limited to Louu, Julio Angel, Jacky Fontanez.
Currently, I reside in San Juan, Puerto Rico, working on my MBA in Marketing and counting with a BA in Contemporary Music Performance. Working my way through the internet, gigging and recording with different bands and artists, and teaching. Personally, I lean mostly towards playing pop, rock, jazz and fusion. Some of my current personal projects include working on my new band's music, Koi, the Great, creating lessons online in english and spanish and a guitar instructional book, which I'm honestly very excited about. Additionally, I've been teaching private lessons for around 6 years now and enjoy it just as much as everything else I do.
