For singer/songwriter Leroy Sanchez, inspiration travels everywhere he does — usually in the form of his Taylor 914ce guitar and a trusty notebook he's split down the middle for English and Spanish lyrics. "It felt like butter," Sanchez says of the Taylor, which he picked out himself after finally feeling ready to invest in his music career. "The sound was just perfect."
The Spanish-born pop artist also reveals why he always writes by hand: "There's something about slowing down the process — it gives me more time to process and really get into it." From sold-out tours to viral hits, Sanchez's performance-ready pair of tools helps bring it all to life. For more episodes of It Goes To 11, visit GRAMMY.com/videos.
