About Alessandro Novello
"...I write in order to feel alive, to fulfill dreams, to fill the sense of emptiness that often asails me from within and without. I sing in order to vomit sensations, images and colours, and it matters little if today it is difficult and heavy...one day they will understand!..." Alessandro Novello was born in November 1978 in Castelfranco Veneto (TV). He attended the technical institute in his home town before spending a number of years in various cities around the world: London, Brusselles, Recife (Brazil)...where he turned his hand to a wide range of jobs. Now, after numerous years of travelling around South America, the United States, Europe and parts of Africa, where experiences and encounterss have enriched him enormously, he is studying social services at the University of Cà Foscari in Venice. He started to make music and to write songs towards the end of 1999, when he began to realise that he could start to overlook the critical opinions of the people around him. After some soul-searching and months of basement jam-sessions with musicians from the local rock scene, in April 2004 he finally formed one of the most active rock-grunge bands in the area and beyond, writing lyrics in English with cutting themes that ranged from anger and insatisfaction to love and frustration for what is not or always arrives too late. With his band he took part in numeorus musical competitions, various festivals and played in may of the coolest venues in the north of Italy. He has also established ties with numerous music labels and promotion agencies such as www.insanemood.com and www.alkemist-fanatix.com. After almost two years of live perfomances, Alessandro gained the confidence and artistsic maturity to take up a career as a solo performer, and in the winter of 2006 he began to compose songs in Italian, choosing a completely different genre from that which he was used to but which had always appealed to him. With his acoustic guitar in his arms, a few ideas and heaps of passion...in no time at all he had a number of songs ready: instinctively released emotions! In July 2006 a four-song demo was recorded and mixed with just guitar and voice. Notwithstanding the initial idea of a solo project, Alessandro gathered a number of musicians around him (bass, drums and piano) in order to give the songs a more articulated arrangement, eventually completing the project with the publication of a cd “Facilmente Impressionabile” (Easily Disturbed), produced at the Overdrive Recording Studio (Treviso) between March and May 2007. ____________________________________________ Alessandro Novello is a member of IMIsound Independent Musicians from Italy
