About Me

***** ***** *****I'm from the sun's island. I play piano, sing songs and write since when I was a little chicky.I love to make videos too( check out the video section)... to frame the beauty, the sadness and any sort of emotional feeling: it's all about ancestrol memories and dreams living through music and moving images. Music is above all. Music is life. It makes me feel alive when I have no words to express myself. I need music! I lived in London and because the falling rain, everything seemed to me so beautifully sad and romantic. I wrote many songs but I needed of the sun to nurture and give them a birth.....so back to my nest, I met Andrea, very sensitive friend and talented music-head.He plays guitar and piano too. I met Toti, very great musician. He has a rich past as a drummer and he loves his computer platform /studio. I met then Lorenzo, inspired musician and guitar's man. As we said in Italy, he is a young egg head.They all play with theirs bands and be involved in many music-projects. I feel lucky to play music with them and to sing for an alternative and joyfull project, the AlbanoPower -you can check on myspace.com/albanopower....... with Lore,Toti and friends...... Besides, I splash myself into my muse;it gives me love, tears and inspiration....the muse is my road "like a soul without a mind and a body without the heart I miss them apart..." . I need music! that is it! The tracks are all composed with piano and then arranged with Toti..s touch at his recording studio, Vertigo!I believe in friendship, in support, in smiles, in vibes, in rhythm, in beauty, in god, in love, in fortune, in family, in myself when I..m not falling, in you, in us. ****** Make a SlideShow at MyWackoSpace.com
