Italian singers have always attracted the public with their performance of songs. However, you don't often see indie rock performed in Italian. It is in this style that Marco Masini creates his songs.
The childhood of the artist Marco Masini
Marco Masini was born on September 18, 1964 in Florence. The singer's mother brought many changes to the guy's life. She was an ordinary teacher until her beloved boy was born. In addition to teaching children, she also loved to play the piano. But then she devoted herself to the family, ceasing to do this.
Father's name is Giancarlo, and he worked in a hairdresser's. Only he sold products for the hairdresser. It was the father and mother who made a serious decision that made Marco a famous performer.
This happened after the guy's uncle noticed talent in him. He told his parents about this, urging them to send him to a music school. On the advice of his uncle, the guy began to attend music lessons. And his favorite genres and styles were classical music, pop-rock, traditional music of Italy.
Already at the age of 11, the guy took part in the festival, which was not far from his hometown. He performed songs of various styles, combining his creativity and making it non-standard for listeners. The guy even managed to create a musical group with his friends when he was 15 years old.
Then he tried to prove himself in sports. He became involved in football, playing for an Italian local club. But later he decided to study music, and he left the sport.
For some time he had to work in the same position as his father. And by 1980, his family became the owner of a bar in his hometown. There Marco Masini and his sister began to work together.
Life forced Marco Masini to change
Unfortunately, life is not always smooth sailing. There was a problem with Marco. The fact is that he constantly clashed with his father, which upset his mother. She later developed cancer, which could not be cured. Although the father sold the bar for the sake of his wife's treatment, it was all in vain.
The family took the death of their mother hard, especially Marco. He even had to join the army to try to forget about what happened. Returning from the army, the guy again started recording music tracks. Moreover, he decided to study symphonic music again, as he had done before. And he did it successfully.
The famous pianist, who teaches many other famous artists of Florence and Italy, Claudio Baglioni, became a teacher for the guy. But the bars did not disappear from the guy's life, and he returned to them again. However, now as a musical performer, not an employee.
Then Marco had a lot of music tracks. But many companies said that the guy has a very mixed style, which prevents the public from listening to his tracks.
Debut and success of Marco Masini
Bob Rosati became the man who changed Marco's life. He allowed him to record the first demo album.
Later, after hearing this album, Bigazzi decided to collaborate with Marco. He not only sent the artist on tour, but also allowed the release of the Uomini album for a special festival in Sanremo.
Fate forced the guy to accept the past, and he made peace with his father, going to conquer the festival. And he got it. He became the best young artist.
Marco Masini's first album
Career developed, and the guy recorded his first album, which was released in 1991. After the release of the first collection, the guy thought about the second. The guy used one of the Perché lo fai tracks, thanks to which he got 3rd place at the festival.
Nevertheless, this single became the best-selling single in Italy in one year. Then the guy did not stop and released the second album Malinconoia. Due to the success of the second album, he decided to make his own tour, where he invited friends. And he managed to win at the Festivalbar in the same year, and the album became the best of the year.
Later, the performer released albums that contained obscene language. But the new album did not become a problem, it began to be played in Germany and France. Then in 1996 another album L'Amore Sia Con Te was released. Two years later, another Scimmie album was released.
Then in the artist's career there were many more albums. Between 2000 and 2011 released 13 albums. The most fruitful was 2004, during which the guy released 3 albums.
Scandals in the life of the performer
Nevertheless, there were scandals in his life. Firstly, the singer had to refuse cooperation with Bigazzi, who helped him break into the big stage. Secondly, fans did not understand him in 1999, when the guy appeared in public in a different image - with a beard and blond hair.
The performer was partially considered controversial, as he used obscene language in his work, but many liked his music. For this, he was loved in Italy, and music albums are still being listened to.
