Musician

Born in 1977 in Macerata, Italy, Paolo's discovery of music starts soon thanks to his brother’s and mother's assortment of albums ranging in genres from Rock to Classical. At the age of 16, he buys his first drumkit. A huge fan of Led Zeppelin he focuses mainly on the sound of those incredible albums and the other great rock bands of the 60's and 70's. In the following years he expands his repertoire of styles by being part of hard rock, blues and latin bands and in 1998 he wins an award for best drummer in a regional competition while he keeps playing extensively in central Italy. With the discovery of jazz Paolo starts to explore a growing interest in a "freer", more expressive approach to music. In the year 2000 he decides that in order to keep moving ahead musically he has to leave the comforts of his current life and go where he could learn more and challenge himself. In January of 2002 he enrolls at Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA, majoring in performance and graduates with the honor of “Magna Cum Laude” in the spring of 2005. While studying the drums Paolo develops a strong interest in composing and arranging and during his years at Berklee he divides his studies between the drums and the “staff”. Soon after graduating he joins those two sides and forms a group with which he records Night Dancers, featuring him as leader, composer and drummer
