Story
About him
Musician, composer, writer, arranger and multi-instrumentalist, Valentino Mucci
is an all around creative within his field. As a self-taught artist and
former Software Engineer, his career has always been circling around
one single concept: research.
From playing bass guitar or
electric guitar in a few Punk bands as a teenager, to creating a one-man
band street show with only an electric violin and some pedals, in his late twenties, his
signature has always been the clear and deliberate intention to break
the boundaries of music. Even more, the ability to speak, sing and write
in three different languages (English, Italian and Spanish) allowed him to explore with his music while travelling and performing all around the world.
Valentino Mucci
was born in May 1988 into an Italian family. Inspired
by his parents, he developed an early interest for Classical Music and Original Film Soundtracks. At a young age, Ennio Morricone became
one, if not the most, important of his influences. That's why one of
his passions is to compose music for plays, shorts, shows and even for
hypnosis.
As a teenager he started to play Spanish guitar with
the help of his brother and from there he continued to explore different
instruments by his own. In his twenties, while living in Italy, he fell
in love of an instrument that would become his main passion: the
violin, The one that has defined the last ten years of his life.
Now
he is launching his solo career as a singer/songwriter and after a life
of listening, performing and composing a wide-range of music, from
Classical to Funk, Jazz or Rock, his compositions cannot be boxed in one
single style.
