1.	I Sing About You 03:26	lyrics	buy track
I sing about you I could now sing about heroes, or about poets ahead of their time. I could now sing about the outcasts, the abandoned people on our streets. I could sing about freedom, or the much needed equal rights. But this one I sing it to you, who gave me everything you could: The music, the music, and not much else. You could have been like the others, You never had someone to look up to. However you decided to pursue A future that you wanted to be true. A simple man, an authentic life And a big don’t know how to. This one I sing it to you, who gave me everything you could: The music, the music, and not much else.
2.	Fer net 03:23	lyrics
Fer net Deixem que ens esbandeixi, que l'aigua ens esbandeixi el sediment que ens pesa, ara que encara som a la riba bona dels records. Deixem que se ho endugui, que l'aigua se ho endugui i ens deixi la certesa de pensar en el futur, i confiar en allà on anem.
3.	Song of Myself 04:15	lyrics
Song of Myself I celebrate myself, and sing myself, And what I assume you shall assume, For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you. I celebrate myself, and sing myself. Always the procreant urge of the world the procreant urge of the world. There was never any more inception than there is now, Nor any more youth or age than there is now, And will never be any more perfection than there is now, Nor any more heaven or hell than there is now. Always the procreant urge of the world the procreant urge of the world. I’ve heard what the talkers were talking, the talk of the beginning and the end, But I do not talk of the beginning or the end. Always the procreant urge of the world the procreant urge of the world. I’ve heard what the talkers were talking, the talk of the beginning and the end, But I do not talk of the beginning or the end. There was never any more inception than there is now, Nor any more youth or age than there is now, than there is now. And will never be any more perfection than there is now, Noranymore heaven or hell than there is now, than there is now. New now nirinirinew now now New now nirinirinew now now *Free adaptation of diferent fragments of the poem Song of Myself, by Walt Whitman. The poem was first published by Whitman in 1855 as part of the book Leaves of Grass.
4.	Your Time to Blossom 03:57	lyrics	buy track
Your Time to Blossom When everything feels rotten, and your world has lost all sense, you can trust those who love you, because they saw you growing, they grew with you. If you feel like you don't fit in, you're really not the one to blame, life is coarse and it is fine, perhaps that's how it's meant to be, that's how it's meant to be. It's your time to blossom. Live a life nobody can live for you.
5.	Olor de tu 02:29	lyrics
Les mans s'escampen, els ulls es parlen, la nit m'envolta i el teu cos sencer. La pell s'esberla, el cos desborda, i descobreixo la teva olor en mi. I què en fem d'això, d'aquest nostre amor inesperat, i què en fem d'això, després de les voltes que hem donat. El deixem salpar, que navegui lliure tots els vents. L'amarrem al port, que estigui a recer que estigui segur, i sol.

[CAT] Inflexions és una modulació, un canvi de curvatura, un compromís amb una part essencial de la meva vida: la música i l’expressió artística.

Els cinc temes d’aquest EP acústic disponible a les principals plataformes digitals a partir del 25 de maig presenten un lirisme emocionalment ric acompanyat de solos i loops de guitarra, i de paisatges electrònics. Inflexions reflecteix el caràcter eclèctic de la meva música, modelat per la guitarra clàssica, la música brasilera i el jazz manouche.

El 75% de la recaptació d’aquest àlbum es canalitzarà per donar suport a les organitzacions de drets de migrants i refugiats Open Arms (activa a la frontera de la UE) i Al Otro Lado (activa a la frontera nord-americana).

Agraïments especials a Aurora M. Ricart, pel suport incondicional i per la seva participació; a Montse Miàs, per l’ull expert i el consell intel·ligent; a Núria Valls, pel coaching vocal imprescindible; a Matt McDavid, per fer-me sentir com a casa; a Gracià Pedro, per assessorar-me; a Valeria Duffe, per la caràtula del disc, un embalatge extern amb sentit intern; a Courtney Gomola, per ajudar amb les lletres en anglès.
