Born August 4th,
1961 in Valley Stream, Long Island. My family moved to Farmingdale when
I was at the age of two…And that’s where my musical dreams
began. Growing up with the sound of the Big Bands, Nat King Cole, Johnny
Mathis, and of course in an Italian household, Mr. Francis Albert Sinatra.
At the age of five I learned to play the drums and at the age of twelve
I was performing in my living room for family and friends.
For many years I worked as a banquet manager for a prestigious catering
hall on Long Island. Many times I would sing with bands and add a special
touch to couples wedding day; most people could not believe that it was
actually me singing and not Frank himself. My performance is a tribute
to Frank Sinatra, but of course Johnny Mathis, Nat King Cole, Elvis Presley,
Englebert Humperdinck, Neil Diamond, Tony Bennett, Dean Martin and Billy
Joel are audience favorites.
Over the years I would sing at family and friends functions while still performing at wedding engagements. This led to many wonderful opportunities, such as: The Waldorf Astoria for two years at corporate Christmas parties, Twice at Nassau County executive Thomas Suozzi’s Political fund raisers and for the town of Babylon with a 16 piece live orchestra. Other appearances included the Garden City County Club, Nassau Country Club, Long Island restaurants and the Holiday Inn of Plainview where there was a published review written”…a fascinating performance…his mannerisms, his voice... ,his finale of New York, New York had the audience in a standing ovation”.
Currently my venture includes singing at many upscale Long Island restaurants.
My family has always supported and encouraged my dreams of becoming a singer. I am now living a boyhood dream…to sing timeless classics and to perform the songs of Frank Sinatra.
