Born in Mexico City, Alberto Hernandez has had the opportunity to be immersed in various cultures and has been directly exposed to various unconventional musical genres. In 1989 he and his family uprooted and headed to the greater Los Angeles area. While living in L.A. he was trained in saxophone and classical guitar. Alberto has played with a variety of bands from Southern California which afforded him the opportunity of touring the west coast a myriad of times. In 2001, on a whim, Alberto decided to move to San Francisco. While in San Francisco the recording bug bit Alberto and he decided that rather than performing he’d prefer to be on the other side of the glass. Alberto built a small home studio and started recording various projects at home with friends. Eventually he decided to take a more serious approach to recording and went back to school attending Ex’pression College for Digital Arts (Graduation Date, August 2008). While at Ex’pression, Alberto worked at a small studio in San Francisco called Headchange Studios. Additionally, Alberto worked briefly as an intern at Studio 880. In August of 2008 Alberto started working at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley California. Alberto has worked with a plethora of artists and through a wide spectrum of genres. Artists Alberto has worked with include but are not limited to: Journey, Lil Wayne, Dave Matthews, Herbie Hancock, Danny Glover, Michael Pollan, George Winston, etc.
