What do I do?

The Sound of Vali Herrera

Welcome back! Today, I want to pull back the curtain a bit and talk about the heart of this page: my music, my sound and what I create.

If you look around the media section of my page, you can already get a sneak peek of my voice and videos. But if I had to describe what drives my music, it comes down to a few special things.

A World of Shadows, Opera, the darkness and Metal

While a lot of what I do features just me, a guitar and my voice, my musical roots run much deeper and darker. I have fascination with the dark and mysterious.

My musical background includes history and training in opera, which shapes how I use my voice sometimes. I am also inspired by the energy of metal, the haunting atmospheres of Celtic music and the intensity of heavier genres. I love blending these dramatic textures into my sounds, so acoustic music can still hold an incredible amount of power and mystery too.

Find more about my backstory and collaborations on music- and film projects in my Bio.

Soon, I’ll be sharing the deeper story of how I first started making music and how my singing journey began. But for now, feel free to explore the media on this page, listen to a few tracks and join me on this journey.
