That Lonesome Road Between Hurt and Soul

2009 release. Introduced to music in his childhood while living in the famous monastery Franco erected in a mountain valley west of Madrid, Victor Herrero learned to sing Gregorian and Mozarabic chant under the guidance of Benedictine monks. Joining the abbey's well-respected boys' choir he performed in around Europe and was featured in the soundtrack and as an extra in the Belgian cult film Farinelli. Around this time he began studying the classical guitar. As a teenager back in his hometown Toledo he formed a Psych-Rock outfit called Cicely, which grew into a popular Madrid-based band. The group lasted eight years. Following this break-up Victor recorded and released an album of his solo piano compositions (Connotaciones para Piano) under his old stage name Victor Cicely. Shortly after this period, Victor began collaboration with Josephine Foster, accompanying her frequently in concert as well as in the recording studio.
