About David Riondino

He started his career in the mid-1970s as a member of the musical ensemble Collettivo Victor Jara. In 1979 he made his solo debut with the album David Riondino, and the same year he was the opening act in a series of concerts by Fabrizio De André and Premiata Forneria Marconi, including those in Florence and Bologna, where De André's live album Fabrizio De André in concerto - Arrangiamenti PFM was recorded. In 1980, following his second album, Boulevard, with arrangements by Shel Shapiro, he focused on his live performances, where he mixed improvisation, music, and cabaret. Starting from the second half of the 1980s Riondino enjoyed a large success thanks to the semi-regular participation in the Canale 5 show Maurizio Costanzo Show, where he used to improvise surreal songs imitating the style of the Brazilian singer-songwriters. In 1987 he released his third album Tango dei miracoli, whose booklet was illustrated by Milo Manara.
