Piero Barone, Ignazio Boschetto and Gianluca Ginoble made their debut in 2009 as individual participants on the talent show 'Ti Lascio Una Canzone', on the Italian TV channel RAI 1. They were spotted by Michele Torpedine, the manager who launched the careers of Andrea Bocelli, Zucchero, Giorgia and Biagio Antonacci. He wanted to work with them on their international artistic journey, counting on their extraordinary vocal talents. Soon they became the first Italian artists in history to sign a contract with a major American record label, Geffen Records.
Their self-titled debut album, 'Il Volo' (2010), went platinum and entered the US Billboard Top Ten. They appeared on major European and American television shows, including 'The Tonight Show', 'American Idol', 'Good Morning America', 'The Today Show', 'Wetten Das' in Germany and the 'MDA Labor Day Telethon' by Jerry Lewis. In 2014, they received the Latin Pop Albums Artist of the Year, Duo or Group award at the Latin Billboard Awards in Miami.
After their triumph at Sanremo 2015, the success of Il Volo was unstoppable: the group reached #1 on iTunes with their EP, single and accompanying video, which racked up record views on the web. They went straight to the top of the Italian charts ranking the bestselling albums and singles with 'Sanremo Grande Amore' and 'Grande Amore' respectively, the former going Double Platinum and the latter Platinum. Il Volo represented Italy at the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest and the European television audience rewarded the group, giving it the top spot in the public phone vote. This success also had a major impact on the sales charts: the single 'Grande Amore' and the album 'Sanremo Grande Amore' actually went straight to number one on the iTunes charts of the Eurovision countries.
Both on their albums and live on stage, the group demonstrates immense vocal talent and awe-inspiring skill as entertainers. Don’t miss their Live In Concert Tour on October 7th at Forest National, Brussels.
