About us

I approach music first as a singer and then, at fifteen, as a self-taught drummer, and then I perfect myself in few accademie through Milan and Rome. I have worked with many bands and many soloists in couple of musical fields, including Dead Shrimp, with whom I recorded two albums, had many gigs throughout Italy and worked on two soundtracks, as well as having opened concerts by international artists (Jonathan Wilson, Lucinda Williams, Luke Wislow King, Mariem Hassan, etc.), and I have been in Web Notte by Assante and Castaldo, Last Before Dinner, with which I worked at two soundtracks, and made the music for a commercial of the FIAT, as well as numerous live collaborations and recording sessions with Morgan, Lele Battista, Paolo Benvegnù, Roberto Luti, The Moonshine Liquors. I also played, through Italy and Europe, twice on tour with Reed Turchi (guitarist from North Carolina) and as many with Luther Dickinson (North Mississippi Allstars, Black Crowes). At the same time I'm carrying out "Rèv", my solo project where, in addition to playing the drums, I composed all the material, sang and played the synthesizers, under the artistic direction of Lele Battista.

I was born dreaming f becoming an actress and next to this path I build also the musical one, so I studied piano and singing with Stefano Caponi, Caio Bascerano, Tosca, Donatella Pandimiglio, to then join the two passions starting to work as an actress and singer in musicals . At the age of 17, my first important work at the Sistine theater in Rome, with "Buonasera buonasera", directed by Claudio Insegno, followed by years of stages, among which the most important is the one with Giorgio Albertazzi, with whom I stage Il Merchant of Venice for about 190 dates. In 2004 I graduated in drama academy; I worked with the pontifical institute of sacred music under the direction of Reverend Gennaro Becchimanzi and singing in polyphony choir for several years, an experience that allowed me to start working both as a singer, in the Blues Crimes Band for "The music factory" on Rai Doc Futura , which as a chorister for Spiritual Front in the albums Armageddon Gigolò and Black Hearts in Black suites. I also collaborated with Federico Zampaglione, leader of Tiromancino, in the "Nel respiro del mondo" tour, also taking part in the big show of May 1st, Rome 2016. Again, I became a singer and leader of the band Audiostop, collaborating with Stefano Masciarelli, with whom I performed throughout Italy, collecting more than 250 live concerts in a concert show dedicated to the history of Italian music. Since 2015, thanks to a ten-year friendship with its members, I am working with Jumbo Gumbo as a backing vocalist, always keeping my dual role as singer-actress intact.

I studied acting in Rome at the La Scaletta Theater School where I graduated. In the following two years, thanks to a scholarship, I attended specialization courses in the Mimic Method at the same school, studying with Orazio Costa Giovangigli. I went through courses in didactics with the Mimic Method with Giuseppe Manzari, Alessandra Niccolini and Mirella Bordoni. I studied electric bass first as a self-taught musician then with Maestro Luca Barberini. I did the first tour as a professional bass player with Michele Ascolese, and there it happened the musical activity has become the main one, with some sporadic things into the theater. Many concerts and collaborations (Deborah Johnson, Mark Hanna, Francesca de Fazi, Francesco Forni, Stefano Malatesta, Egidio Marchitelli, Leo Pari, Sara Jane Olog, Alessandro Pitoni, Gina Fabiani, Luca Carocci, Stefano Scarfone, Gabriele Lopez, Giancarlo Romani , Massimo Giangrande, Fabio Rondanini, Leno Landini, Funkallisto, Matteo Agostini, Emma Tricca, Giacomo Lariccia, Margoo, Almost Blues Band, Emiliano Bonafede), just to name a few. I am also a composer of TV soundtracks for the "Helikonia" label and published by Rai Trade.

I started playing guitar at the age of 16 driven by the inspiration of rock guitarists like Jimmy Page, Angus Young, Jeff Beck and Van Halen. In 2000 I joined a historic band of the Italian Blues, the Blue Stuff with which I collaborated until 2018. In 2008 I released the first solo album "Blues on me" while in 2012, after a long series of studies and research, I realized "Mandolin Blues", the first Italian album entirely dedicated to the Blues mandolin. In 2016, the research continues with "Mandolin Blues - The Piano Sessions" and in 2017 the third chapter of the series "Mandolin Blues - The Acoustic Sessions" is released, in which it gathers and collaborates on original and unpublished songs with the best Italian acoustic bluesmen. Also in 2017 I started working with an international Blues star, Corey Harris, with whom I am on tour. In addition to the live activity with the Mandolin Blues Quartet where I shoot for European Blues festivals, I am involved in teaching and workshops on the Blues mandolin.

I wrote 9 didactic methods for Fingerstyle guitar that has been published by Fingerpicking.net, I still work with “Chitarra Acustica" magazine and, for 10 years, I worked at magazine "Chitarre" while I was endorser of Elixir strings. In 2014 I started my project, of which one I am still the artistic director, about the music school "ScuolacusticA", focused on the study and the tecniques of fingerstyle guitar, with many different locations all over Italy.

I was born in a family where music was breathed everyday,and that's how my voice comes out, with a deep, rough, crisp and melancholy tone, but always with an emotion that comes out naturally, even from the most casual vocal emission, and arrives to the listener as words that are sometimes reassuring, sometimes languid, sometimes dramatic. I participated at TV shows The Voice and Tu Si Que Vales, collecting the congratulations of the anchomen Gerry Scotti, Paolo Bonolis, and Maria de Filippi; I recently recorded a song used like as the title track of the soundtrack of the fiction “La porta rossa” aired on RAI. My next future includes participation in The Voice Romania and my record debut with unreleased Italian songs.

Born in 1984, I have always had a passion for music; I started when I was a teenager performing in many places with my first band, then, in 1999, I started studying singing at the Saint Louis College of Music, gaining experience as a soloist and also as a chorister in the choir of Susanna Boots and in the SAT & Bs of Maria Grazia Fontana. Over the years I collaborated with many professionals of the Roman musical scene, and since 2008 (from participating in X Factor) to 2016, I am a part of the vocal group Quinta Giusta; in 2013 I participated as a soloist in The Voice of Italy, joining Piero Pelù's team.

Since 2005 I have been running one of the main blues shows in Italy, the Mojo Station Blues Festival. For twenty years I have been mixing live records with never dully, and always groovy, dj-sets.

A very versatile dj I enjoy a collection of around 5000 vinyls and in my performances I also play liveset synth and electronic drums to enrich my djset ranging from the 70s to today's pop genres.
