Inspired by the singers of yesteryear, Patrizio harkens back to a time when a man would not dream of singing on stage in anything less than a suit, shoes, polished, clean-shaven, hair neatly brushed, with a dab of cologne behind the ears. To listen to this young talent is to immerse oneself in the soundtrack of a world familiar from film and television – from Federico Fellini, Sophia Loren, and Gina Lollabrigida to The Godfather, Goodfellas, and The Sopranos. “My music is as Italian as pasta in an Italian kitchen,” says Patrizio. “These songs are timeless classics. To me, crooning is more than a way of singing, it's a way of life! And I want to share that with a new audience.”
