I started playing music at a very young age, initially influenced by Jimi Hendrix on guitar. Over the years, I went on to study electric bass at music schools in Italy, focusing on blues and jazz, while remaining strongly influenced by American blues-rock and Southern rock.
I have been playing for around 40 years and have gained extensive live experience with various Italian rock bands, as well as performing with American and Italian blues musicians.
Above all, I am a passionate musician with deep experience and a solid knowledge of these genres.
