Mini bio

  • Italian rockstar. His career began at the beginning of the 80s with a list of songs like "Bollicine", "Vita spericolata" and "Colpa d'Alfredo" which shook the social behaviour with a mix of rebellion, drugs and rock 'n' roll. But the singer who seems only a curious moment in Italian music, soon became a real author and leader of his concerts, helped by a musical surround of higher respect (which includes Maurizio Solieri and Massimo Riva, who unfortunately died in 1999). Vasco Rossi's songs are always stories about complicated and angered love, about rises and falls: beautiful themes like "Una splendida giornata", "Vivere", "Io no", "Stupido Hotel", "Gli spari sopra", "Senza parole" and "Gli Angeli" with a videoclip directed by Roman Polanski. His work includes a deep campaign in favour of the toxic saving. He supported the "Gruppo Abele" Association of Don Luigi Ciotti. His last work published in 2004 was the album "Buoni o cattivi" with the beautiful song "Un senso" written for the movie Don't Move (2004). His latest tour began on the 5th June in Rome at the Olympic Stadium.
