Gianni

.all the influences I gathered travelling around the world are in my music. No boundaries, no restrictions or preconceptions. just.play.
.to cut a log story short.I am originally from Italy, lived and played in many parts of the world and now I live in good old B'mouth, in the (almost) sunny side of England. I started playing at very young age, and played guitar in diverse style bands, in any club/pub/jazz festival/random venue I could get to. In my twentys I moved to Boston, MA (yes, I graduated from Berklee College.) where I got to 'hang with a lot of cats'. Fast forwarding to now.getting into the UK music scene.if you want know more about myself visit my website (www.giannichiarello.com). When I am not playing some mean guitar lines, I cook a lot of delicious Italian food.you're all invited.



BIO:
Gianni Chiarello has gained a reputation as an extremely versatile musician, having professional credits as a guitarist, bassist, arranger and producer. Traditional in nature, contemporary in sound, his passionate and emotionally evocative guitar playing rarely treads on safe musical territory. As a performer his attention to tone and feel is compulsive, with a genuine ease in many styles of music learnt during his travels to their territory of origin. His music is a preconception-free mix of Jazz, Rock, Blues and contemporary elements, where harmony, melody and rhythm marry to serve the natural flow of music.
A Native of Italy, in his forming years he performed with some of his country's finest musicians working towards developing different styles, from rock to pop, funk and jazz. In 1999 he moved to Boston to attend Berklee College of Music, on a scholarship program, where he graduated with a Degree "Magna cum laude" in Professional Music, studying under the direction of Mick Goodrick, Hal Crook, Brett Willmott and Dave Samuels, also playing in the Boston area and along the States' east coast as a freelance musician.
His work as a session player is vast, ranging from playing and producing countless demos, to credits in albums to be found on shelves around the world. He has been performing with, and leading as Musical Director, numerous bands and orchestras, comping for celebrities from the sixties like The Platters, The Coasters, Bobby Arvon, The Diamonds, Vegas - Broadway entertainers like Tony Tillman, Kenny James, Hal Fraiser, Lorna Luft, Ben Vereen, Susan Anton and Dominique Allen. Furthermore his work entailed musical theatre style production reviews, encompassing shows such as “Smokey Joe’s Café”, “We Will Rock You”, “Starlight Express”, “Grease” and “Rent”.
After relocating to the UK in 2005, his focus is now on writing, producing and performing music in different settings and styles, working on the release of his first album and educational material, both online and on paper.
