The Excitements
Dokser
His different faces and a number of alter egos speak for themselves when trying to describe Javier Dokser, and his many ways of understanding music.

Loren is an Australian singer/songwriter. Down to earth and humble, Loren is a hard-working troubadour revealing a musical ambition that dazzles.
