Post Description
Alex Argento is a rock/fusion keyboard player / composer based in Sicily, Italy.
He started to play keyboards really late (when he was16). From 1994 to 2003 he performed a lot with several cover bands in his country as session player, covering different musical styles. His playing was most influenced by prog and fusion music like: Chick Corea, Pat Metheny, Alain Caron, Tribal Tech, Allan Holdswoth. This music helped him to develope his improvisational skills over chord changes.
He also had the chance to play in different musical projects, as guest musician, together with some of the best musicians of the music industry like: Virgil Donati, Simon Philips, Greg Bissonette and so on.
On May 1 (2007), he released his first instrumental solo album entitled "EGO" (prog fusion), together with Marco Sfogli (from James Labrie's bands) on guitars and Stefano Ruscica on drums.
The album features also some guest appearances by great musicians like: Alessandro Benvenuti (guitars / solo artist), Fabrizio Leo (guitars / Shrapnel's artist), Jon Reshard (bass / Greg Howe's band).
His continue research to explore new musical teritories brings him to costantly develop his phrasing, his tecnique but first of all his neverending passion for music in every direction.
