"Sic Parvis Magna is a concept album meant to be experienced from start to finish. At its core, it's about overcoming internal demons, but also learning to live with them. It's about embracing who you've become after the fight, and recognizing that the constant battle within us can shape something meaningful, even beautiful.
The title, Sic Parvis Magna, translates to 'greatness from small beginnings,' and that’s exactly what this journey has been: starting from a place of introspection, and building something bigger than myself, through sound.
The recording process was a real joy. Having Alex Garcia produce the album and help shape the sonic vision elevated every step of the process. I’m proud to have worked once again with Anup Sastry on Drums and Joey Izzo on Keys, and to welcome Jacob Umanski on bass; this truly felt like a dream team.
Mixing was handled masterfully by my friend Arturo Banus, and Mike Kalajian brought it all home with his precision on the mastering.
I’m deeply honored to also feature incredible collaborators like Tapado Vargas, Gabriel Figueira, Andrés Vadin, and I Built The Sky, each of them added new dimensions to the music.
The visual world of Sic Parvis Magna, from creative and artistic direction to artwork and videos, was entirely brought to life by GARA, whose vision runs through every frame.
This album is for anyone who's ever been at war with themselves and needed something, anything, to help them keep going." - PAARIS
