Aldo Nova (born Aldo Caporuscio, 13 November 1956, in Montreal, Quebec) is a Canadian guitarist, keyboardist, vocalist and producer. Although he didn't start playing guitar until he was 15, Nova worked obsessively to master guitar and keyboards, soon becoming a hometown hero in the local clubs.
His career got started dually by a role as George Harrison in a production of Beatlemania, and a job as an after-hours studio engineer. Signing with Portrait Records, he released an album Aldo Nova, produced by himself, in 1982 which had a two hit singles with "Fantasy" and "Foolin' Yourself". Although his next album, Subject...Aldo Nova had a hit with "Monkey on your back," his solo career started to crumble as he found demand as a player and writer for other bands.
He worked with Jon Bon Jovi in the late 1980s and produced some early Céline Dion albums. He helped write and produce parts of Chantal Condor's 1989 album, Chantal. He is now a songwriter, living in Ireland.
