After a few years in Manchester, he moved to London in 2012 and became a regular of Eddie's workshop. He grew up in Rome influenced by Zappa and Coltrane but it is punk that inspired him to start his first band Wild Union (1980/81) followed by Clanjark (1984/92) after his military service, then the experimental outfit Memoria Zero, still going strong with 2 CD releases, Free Sdraio (2001), Between (2013).
