Carlos Reyes, recording artist, producer, engineer, harpist and violinist, has been breaking musical barriers since his first public performance at the age of five. Born in Paraguay South America, he began his musical education at the age of three and a half on the violin. He made his debut on the Paraguayan harp with the Oakland Symphony and his debut on the violin with the Oakland Youth Symphony at just fourteen years of age. He has worked in the professional recording industry for commercials, solo artist and instrumental background music for the acclaimed children’s shows “Sesame Street” and “Villa Alegre” when he was still in his teens.

Carlos thrilled thousands of loyal followers with the Jazz-Rock group Merlin as they played all over the SF bay area. Touring in Europe and representing Paraguay at the world’s fair in Hanover Germany he was received with standing ovations and given a medal from the Vatican for his musical contributions.
