About Me

I'm a drummer; I've been developing drumming skills in my teenage and now I work as a drummer in many projects. I prefer playing rock, pop, punk, hard rock and I had the chance to record original stuff with my bands. At the moment I'm playng with: "The Last minute dirty band", a cover band that played about 500 gigs around Tuscany and the rest of Italy; "The Fashion revolution" (www.myspace.com/thefashionrevolution), a pop/rock style band with lyrics in English looking for a deal with a label; "Capitan Nice" (www.myspace.com/cptnice) another band that plays original stuff in Italian which is now recording its first album. Recently I joined also "The VoxPower", a tribute to the Beatles which plays every tusday at the Bebop in Florence.In the past I also played with "Train de vie" (Italian folk/rock), "The Born Losers" (a tribute to "The NY dolls), "The Trescions" (Italian trash music taken from the tv programs of the 80's), "The Kitten's charm" (rock'n'roll/punk), "The Frattaglia blues" (blues..Ironic) and more. myspaceeditor.it
