- Bio...
- Puente del Diablo was conceived in Spain, around the place where the actual Devil's Bridge (hence the name Puente del Diablo) can be seen today. Having travelled there for an extended visit, Gustavo rediscovered the wealth of guitar driven Latin music that had coloured his youth in Canada. Returing to Toronto, he decided to make a dramatic adjustment in the music he was playing and listening to, and thereafter drew a lot of momentum from the Spanish Flamenco guitarists and performers, notably Paco de Lucia and Tonino Baliardo of the Gipsy Kings.
