About Me

I'm a 22 years old half swiss and half italian guy living in Switzerland.
I started to play the bass guitar on july 21th 2001 at the age of 16.
I took for 4 years bass lessons with the teacher Domenico Ceresa at the Scuola di musica Biaschese, then one semester at the pre-professional courses at the SMUM of Lugano and another semester with Angelo Quatrale at ATMM where I've improved my slap tecnique.
Actually I'm a disciple of Ivan Lombardi
My first band was a metal cover band called Abraxas, then I've played into Medieval Night, an epic power metal band with female vocals in Nightwish style, when the band had broken up I've tried some projects whitout success with some friends after that I've been one of the founding members of the death metal band Cerberos but I left them after some months and I joined the hard rock band Powerhill wich I've been a proud member until april 2007 when, due to some lineup changes we splitted up from our guitar player Cep and we've formed a new band called Hardway .
In october 2007 I've left Hardway to focus more on my university studies and to my own musical projects, that are now taking shape, and would be very soon ready to be on stage again!
Since november of 2007 I started to teach electric bass at La Nuova Musica in Lugano.
This is my actual gear:
Basses:
Schecter Stiletto Studio 6, Schecter CV-4, Esh Various V Fretless (lined), The Domen Bass.
