My passion for music began in an unusual way. At the age of 13, I started playing Guitar Hero, and the rest is history. The guitar became my stepping stone into the world of music, culminating in a degree in Songwriting from ICMP.

How did you get into music?
From an early age, I was exposed to different musical genres including rock, funk, blues, alternative rock, and classical. This constant exposure led me to buy Guitar Hero 3, and after that, all I wanted to do was play guitar, so I started taking lessons at around 13 years old. From then on, I never stopped, playing in different bands and writing my first songs. At the end of high school, I decided to move to London and study Songwriting at the Institute of Contemporary Music Performance, where I graduated in 2017.
What musical instruments do you play?
I play guitar, ukulele, a bit of piano, and I sing (not very well though).
What was the first concert you went to?
The first concert I saw live was Placebo, in 2010 at the Lucca Summer Festival.
Who would you like to see live, if anything were possible?
I would have liked to see Pino Daniele or Fleetwood Mac…
Which musicians do you admire most?
There are many musicians I admire, first and foremost Radiohead. I've seen them in concert at least twice and ev
ery live show is always flawless. They have such a vast and varied repertoire and I'm fascinated by how they change it with every album. I tend to lean towards pop-indie rock, but let's say that in general I listen to a bit of everything. Other musicians I appreciate are: Fleetwood Mac, Miles Davis, Kings of Convenience, Pino Daniele, Bruce Springsteen, The Police, The Cure, The National, Bon Iver, John Mayer, Damien Rice, Giorgio Moroder, Daft Punk, Prince, Earth, Wind & Fire, Stevie Wonder, and many others…
