Hi all! I am Bob, the drummer of The LoveCrave. Here is a little bit of my story: I was born in 1975 in Camposampiero, next to Padova - Italy. In the year 1991 my brother took me to rent my first drum kit, a P.L.C. (?) really unknown and never heard again brand... after two years of wild drum beating I started to study at the "Dizzie Gillespie" School of Bassano with the great teacher Davide Ragazzoni. In 1996 I won the second place in a national drums contest winning a 5 piece Tamburo Opera. I attended tons of stages and seminars to learn more on the different styles, from rock to latin, from swing to funky. I've been playing since '93 with the Heartbreaker, a Seventies cover band. With them I've been on most of the clubs, bikers fests, festivals' stages of the north of Italy. In '96 I started collaborating with Alex De Rosso, Nick Barbuti and Ilaria Candido, The Color Seven band. I collaborated in the percussion recordings of "Ossimoro", the second album of Alex De Rosso. I became the drummer of his band and recorded the drums of "The Thin Line Between Black and White" with Simon Dredo on bass. With Alex I also recorded a Toto tribute album that will be released soon. I also collaborated with T.M. Stevens; Ricky Portera; Ivan Prevedello; Federico Vian; Ale Doc; Marco Sartori; Davide Pomponio; Davide Mangano; Andrea Ghion; Sergio Borsato; Pasquale Cosco; Fabio Fecchio; Ivan Trevisan; Matteo Bianco; Max Deniro; BB Nick Savio; Morris; Steve Silenzi; Barbara Belloni etc..In the year 2006 I was called from my best friend Simon Dredo to play some drums in studio for The LoveCrave for the album "The Angel And The Rain" and later on, in 2007, I found myself on the M'Era Luna stage, a huge festival in Germany. I also played in The LoveCrave's german tour becoming a close friend of the band. After the gig we played at Alcatraz, in Milan on Feb. 16 2008, I am now the official drummer of The LoveCrave. Rock on!!
