Italian and Colombian, I am based in London, UK,

I started to play and sing with my brother Adam as a child. I was born and raised in a multicultural background exposed to many different types of music going from Carribean music to John Martyn, from Sade to 2pac or Ethiopan funk.

Travelling around the world was an eye and mind opening experience and once back I started writing songs and performing in a soul reggae band, went on collaborating with some other side projects and performed across Europe (Poland, Italy, Big Chill Fest Uk, Rototom Sunsplash).

From 2010 to 2012 I sang as resident vocalist at Puddhu Bar in Turin,performing with The Dreamers opening for underground producers, and hosting D&B venues.

I am still very happy to remember sharing events and stage with some amazing artists.

(Dbridge, Blu Mar Ten, Jkenzo, Jack Sparrow, Jimmy Edgar, Alice Russell, Andreya Triana, Alborosie, Mykal Rose, Easy Star All Stars, Commix and Logistics, DJ Storm and many others).

My own sound took time to come to life; after performing with a band for 10 years and following other projects I realized I I had no control over my creativity; being a singer was not enough, I wanted to be music maker, my own music maker.

I eventually left all bands and projects and started a solo career isolating myself for more than one year in order to find my own way to make music.

I started sampling and writing my own songs and melodies, performing with a looper, a space echo dub pedal and a synth; on my own on small stages and clubs, restarting at the age of 29.

In 2015 I met a talented sound engineer called Eugenio Mazzetto and we started working on some of my original material, releasing soon after a Sam Cooke's cover and an original song.

We went on recording while I was working on my first livetape with the help of another beatmaker and producer called Davide Vizio; I recorded the livetape in different rooms and places while touring and called it Rooms in Lo-fi available for free on Soundcloud

after I recorded this tape I had started recording and producing other songs with Davide Vizio and me Eugenio and Davide decided that all the songs could match perfectly together even though coming from different moments and recording sessions.

I was lucky to have two producers working on my record and accepting the idea of putting together two different styles and time windows of my life.

My first full length is called Angels and I am very greatful to say it's almost done.

We need an additional mix, master and a good promotion to give it a good start.

I chose this platform to launch my first found raising;

on the right column you can find all the different rewards and peckages I have set for you, and how your help can make this record come to life.

Special thanx to Chiara de Propis and Tania Palmier.
