Yeah, It's been a while since I last reached out...

​

Judy is the resident cellist for Celine Dion and she's a wonderful person. I contacted her to play in a song of my next album. More info about Judy here

I'd like to thank Judy for the great professionalism and the superb interpretation of the song!

I'm happy to be here in Montesilvano (PE), following the drum recording sessions!

Mike is a great musician and a wonderful guy with which to spend time together and we had a great time with all the people in the studio as well.

Recordings are going fast, tomorrow I'll record a vocal part on a song and in the next days bass and guitars...

After a few months spent in composing and arranging my new soundtrack album, it's time to start the recording process. This time I've chosen to involve a friend that will play an harmonica part, and this is where the recordings begin...
