Alessandro "Alex" Britti (born 23 August 1968) is an Italian singer-songwriter and guitarist.
Biography
[edit]When he was 17, he started his first band, playing blues at clubs in Rome, and eventually moved to Milan. In 1989 he established the Alex Britti Blues Band.[1] He has worked with Buddy Miles, Billy Preston, Louisiana Red and has toured Europe with Rosa King.[2]
In the mid-1990s, he toured with Francesco De Gregori. The experience prompted Britti to switch to a more soft rock-oriented sound. He had his first hit in 1998 when "Solo una volta (o tutta la vita)" made it to the top of the Italian charts. In 1999 he won in the newcomers category at the San Remo festival with the song "Oggi sono io".[3]
