Salinger - to explore a sound characterized by extreme intimacy and lyrical depth. His work is deeply rooted in the 'canción urbana' tradition of Uruguay, drawing lines from legends like Eduardo Darnauchans and Fernando Cabrera, but filtering them through a modern indie-folk lens reminiscent of Elliott Smith or Iron & Wine.
