Alan Villatoro was born and raised in Huehuetenango, Guatemala. His parents are pastors at a local church were at an early age he fell in love with music. He began his music career with a dusty old guitar that was brought home by his mother. The keyboardist from his church offered to teach him a few chords on the guitar and that was the start for him to learn how to play every single instrument that was used at his church. During his teens he was part of music tours through all Central America with the music team from his church and that developed in him a love and passion to deliver a positive message through the music. At age 19 he moved to Durango, M�xico to study music at Centro de Capacitaciones y Din�micas Musicales A.C. today known as Instituto CanZion where he graduated as a music composer. During that time he started playing the piano for Marcos Witt, a very well known Christian singer. He traveled with him for a total of 6 years as a keyboardist and music director and was part of several live recordings with him like: "Dios de Pactos", "Amazing God", "Alegr�a" and "Sana Nuestra Tierra" two of them Latin Grammy Winners.
