He discovered his love for drums at 11 and begins to play on his own. The next year he joined the C.F.M. (Centro di Formazione Musicale) in Torino, where he studied jazz drums for nine years with Fiorenzo SORDINI. He started playing in places with the vocal and instrumental band I 100 E …1, to join later COVER HAND, but his real talent emerged thanks to the musical proposals interpreted with AVENIDA. In 2003 met Alberto CATASSO and Alberto POTENZA and with them founded BLACK JACK, Street Blues Band with whom won the selections for Pistoia Blues Festival. At the same time he played with Ivan GENESIO and Isabella RIZZO in the dynamic and sonorous wided jazz combo TRIO GENESIO. He later joined MASS MEDIA, progressive rock band, and NO WAY OUT, soul r&b band. In 2006, gained a good musical maturity, he joins Silence Please. To him, playing with this band is like playing sitting “on his armchair”, because he can finally express on drums his more intimate personalità, being completely at his ease.
