Music comes into my life at the age of 6 and has never left me since.
Between black and white notes, it leads me to love the piano and to study its thousand facets and harmonies.
The passage from keyboard to solfeggio and singing occurs with the growth of love for this wonderful Goddess, refuge of all my labor.
With "Wind of Change" (album "Crazy World" by Scorpions) I discover rock at the age of 13, and I am blown away.
"PERIKOLO GENERIKO" NRG HARD ROCKERS
Shortly thereafter, I founded with friends the rock band "Perikolo Generiko", which from 1998 to 2007 brought around the boot, and in Europe, a Hard Rock in Italian, not catalogable with other "experiments" of the genre: a sound mix between a "British" hard rock and the most commercial Italian rock.
Hundreds of km ground, important stages such as Heineken Jammin Festival, Chatter Fest, up to the support of Negramaro in the tour "Tutto Scorre" (2005) and the presence as "Supported Artists" in by Piero Pelu, are some of the beautiful things of that period , where every little result was a BIG goal, without internet but with a lot of SWEAT. Like all good things, it was destined to die because of us, from different points of view and, probably, because it wasn't our time.
"ALKATRAZ MNGMENT" IN ROCK WE THRUST
In 2002 I founded ALKATRAZ MANAGEMENT with other professionals and I approached music production, especially rock.
I acquire numerous managerial and directive skills, comparing myself every day with show business professionals who "Live on Music"
Since 2011 it has been an association of professionals, which deals with promotional radio and broadcasting services, booking, digital distribution; much less is produced because the market has become so massive that its qualities are gradually lost ... and everyone does everything.
"BACKGROUNDNOISE" COVERBAND
for those who hate COVER!
Since 2010 began the slow decline of clubs.
So I decided to propose with some colleagues a project of "design" musical covers from the 70s to today ... retracing the historical singles of great international rock artists of the last 50 years of music; all revisited.
"CANIBAGNATI" That is a new unpublished project
From 2018 I have access to auditions to become the frontman of a beautiful rock / blues project with an absolutely unique name:
Wet Dogs.
With Cristiano (Producer and guitarist of the band) and Fabrizio Simoncioni (Litfiba, Ligabue etc ...) we have embarked on this path and we are doing a lot of good things.
In 2020 I released my solo album "SALIGIA" all over the world, an album that has met with great success, despite being metal classic in Italian!
