Agustina Vega is a soprano singer, born in 1986 in Buenos Aires, Argentina. She studied piano at the age of 6 with a tutor for some months, quitting her studies due to family circumstances. Her father would stimulate her by giving her different musical instruments. She participated in school choirs and orchestras, being solist in many occasions. At the age of 14 her father would give her first drum set. Ever since, she tried to create teenage pop bands, being vocalist and percussionist at the same time. Over time, she'll develop great passion for rock/metal, and classical music. At 18, she’d study drumming for a year with a tutor. She participated in many bands as drummer, corist and sometimes songwriter, between 2004 and 2008, playing all kinds of music, from bossa nova and blues to heavy metal, with some live shows in schools and pubs in Argentina. She began her classical-popular singing lessons in 2007, with acknowledged singers in Argentina such as Monica D’Agostino, Carlos Pizzini and Roberto Feltri, for three years. There she will increase her interest for classical music, trying since then to include some "classical touch" in her songs. Since 2007 she formed a new power metal/symphonic metal project with her friends, playing covers and also original songs, mostly Agustina’s compositions. This band would be called “Popper’s Truth”, with live shows in pubs in Buenos Aires for two years, until she had to leave the band because she would move to Guadalajara, Mexico. Shortly after she arrived to Guadalajara, she had a TV interview in Hits TV, on Azteca TV. During 2010, Agustina would create a new solo project, The Unstable Project, this time trying to focus on her own musical creations, recording the songs all by herself (except for guitars) with synthesizers, electronic drums and computer software.
