His up and coming track ‘Self Love’ is poised to become an anthem to those on the same journey of personal growth and connection, Chris del Camino paints a story that we can all relate to. — “I just want to put out music that can be both conscious, but also uplifting. Good times when you want them, but food for thought when your soul is hungry”
