The ADHD Music Manifesto

The ADHD Music Manifesto:

(Eurovision, Mandates and Whatnot)

I started writing this blog post in May 2024. It’s February 2025. That’s the finest example of my ADHD calling the shots instead of me.

Another Eurovision came and went. And now a new one is right around the corner.

If you know me, or if you’ve followed my YouTube channel for a while, you already know I’m a die-hard Eurovision fan. It’s one of the highlights of my year. But at the same time, it leaves me with mixed feelings. I love Eurovision. I love the format, I love the songs, I love the emotions it stirs up. But it also reminds me of something else: how music is often boxed in, how artists are expected to stick to a certain mold.

December 15, 2020 No Comment

After Familias Leonas TDAH‘s last meeting in Mar del Plata and the repercusion of my blog post about my diagnosis, I’ve been talking to quite a few families about it; specially mothers and grandmothers of ADHD kids, but also other people who don’t have the disorder and wanted to know and understand a little bit more about it.

And there was a particular topic that I would like to address, and it has to do with the concept of DEFICIT within the ADHD label; stemming primarily from the name: Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

Living With ADHD

September 17, 2019 No Comment

They say the first step to heal is to be able to say things out loud.

Some may know or remember, some may have no idea. I was diagnosed with ADHD, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, in 1996, when I was 12 years old. ADHD is a chronic disorder of the neurodevelopmental type. In simple terms, it is a deficit in the regulatory action of several neurotransmitters within the brain cortex (mainly dopamine and norepinephrine and to a lesser extent, serotonin), and usually lasts a lifetime.

The Aftermath

Hey guys. Andres here. First of all, I wanna thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support. It means a great lot.

It’s been a long journey this past year and a half. Colin Tench‘s passing hit really close to home and affected me a great deal. But he was my staunchest supporter and would kick my ass if he believed I was slacking off. And since I prefer my asses unkicked, I was not.

A true friend is gone. Gone but never forgotten. Colin Tench was a real inspiration and a driving force behind everything I ever did. He was the most hard-working musician I have ever met. Words can’t begin to explain what this man meant to me, to us, to our group of friends.

Brothers should Stick together

March 22, 2017 No Comment

“Los hermanos sean unidos, pues esa es la ley primera“. One of the golden rules from Argentina’s classic epic: José Hernández‘s “Martín Fierro“. The literal translation goes “Brothers be united, because that is the first law”.
