Make Music San José

Hector the Alchemist

I’m Héctor F. Castañeda (Hector the Alchemist): Mercury News published writer, 10x HRDRV (“hard drive”) award-nominated singer-songwriter, Zumba-certified dancer, rapper, music producer & graphic artist. As an intuitive Creative Clarity Coach, I help queer neurodivergent artists of color awaken their creative vision with clarity & confidence. This is achieved via dreamwork healing & somatically embodied meditation (Alchemic Activation), helping creatives lucid dream awake for immersive inspiration. I'm based in Ohlone territory (East Side San José) with my loving immigrant family. My multigenre performance features channels of divine alchemic messaging and following your creative passion. In my art, I'm rerooting into my Temoaya Hñahñu (“ñah-ÑOO”) and Otomí (“oh-toe-ME”) lineage. "Trust Your Intuition." https://dogdaysmusic.com
