      Biography


      Born in Connecticut (United States) from a family of non-professional musicians, he approaches music through the study of the classical piano. Later he will try his hand at various musical genres, from contemporary new music to rock and jazz, showing great eclecticism.
      In the summer of 1967 he moved with his family to Italy, where he worked in the field of pop music, continuing his experimental path at the same time.
      Since 1974 to 1975 he was part of Napoli Centrale.

      He collaborated with, among others, Edoardo Bennato, Toni Esposito, Antonella Ruggiero, Laura Pausini, Sergio Caputo, Eros Ramazzotti, Giorgio Gaber, Skiantos, Mia Martini, Enzo Jannacci, Pino Daniele, Roberto Vecchioni, Alice, Eugenio Finardi e Renato Zero.
