Angelo Alo

Angelo Alo was born in Montreal to a family of musicians of Italian origin. His father Francesco worked in Italy for the circus as an acrobat, and he also played and occasionally still plays the trumpet. His mother Livia also played and still plays the piano and makes exquisite home dishes.

Angelo started playing with musical toys and instruments at the age of four. He got his first real instrument at the age of 10, it was an accordion. He then studied the accordion for about five years and then went on to study the organ and the piano. Later he would also learn to play the trombone, the bass, and the guitar. Started playing with bands and back-up singing and eventually lead-singing.

In 1976 Angelo recorded an album with his band under the "Salsoul" label with Carol Jianni who later went on recording in the States and had a few hits there. In 1988 he was on the album’Scoperta-88’, where he sang his song "Senza di te" and also appeared on CFCF-12 for that song. 

During the 70’s he played with rock bands and toured almost all the high schools in montreal. In the 80’s he began touring Quebec and did many show gigs with "CR Agency" and with "André di Cesare" management. He also started playing solo and duos. In the 90’s played and performed for two years with "Georges Fiori Orchestra". Meeting Mr. Fiori and tenor Perry Canestrari gave him the chance to perform at Place des Arts. 

In that year he also had the chance to sing lead with wonderful big bands such as The Preville Big Band, Peter-Freeman Big Band, and others. He also had the chance to sing (and play live) the song from Elton John "Candle in the Wind" at Mix-96 Radio Station.
