Guillermo Gonzales (born October 21, 1976) is an Italian singer, songwriter and musician.
Biography
[edit]From 1994 to 2008, Gonzales was the frontman of the Italian extreme metal band Mothercare, especially known for their collaboration with Mark Greenway from Napalm Death[2] and Mieszko Talarczyk from Nasum.[3][1]
After leaving Mothercare in September 2008, two months later he was called by long-time friend Davide Tiso to substitute Luciano George Lorusso as Ephel Duath's vocalist,[4] but this experience came to an end shortly, as the band parted ways with their long-time label Earache in 2009.[5]
Since 2012, he has been running several musical projects with Italian virtuoso percussionist Sbibu, spanning from jazz to prog rock and from ethnic music to experimental music, collaborating with a vast range of musicians.
In 2014, he joined, as second vocalist, Premio Tenco SIAE Award winners Farabrutto.[6] a psychedelic folk-rock band where Sbibu plays the ground drums.
