Naples Rhythms’ artistic journey is further enriched by theatrical collaborations with the legendary Dario Fo, an opportunity that allowed him to explore new expressive languages, using music as a tool to tell stories and evoke emotions.
In 2005, he began a long-standing collaboration with Monica Sarnelli, further solidifying his reputation as one of the leading percussionists and drummers in the Italian music scene.
In 2012, he founded the MEV Trio, which recorded the album Contromano, where he served both as an arranger and a musician. His ability to compose and his passion for sound exploration have led him to create a unique and engaging sound, ideal for events seeking an original and distinctive musical touch.
