[edit] Origin of the name
The name Mo-Do is claimed to originate from the two first letters of Frittelli's birth-town (Monfalcone) and the day of his birth (Domenica, i.e. Sunday in Italian).[1]
[edit] The Mo-Do project
Mo-Do was formed when Frittelli met the producer Claudio Zennaro. Other producers who worked with Frittelli (sometimes quoted as members of the group)[2] were Fulvio Zafret, Mario Pinosa and Sergio Portaluri.
Mo-Do is probably best known from the single "Eins, Zwei, Polizei" (co-produced with Zennaro and Zafret) which reached #1 in the German, Austrian and Italian music charts.[3]
