DESCRIPTION
Michéal Castaldo
could be as big as Andrea Bocelli if he only had the exposure. How does one gush enough? An incredibly warm and smooth voice to rival anyone in the genre, every single one of Castaldo's albums is a must-have though I recommend starting with Aceto. He hits the balance exactly right with well known standards, his own compositions and contemporary songs that he translates into Italian himself (including Lion King's 'He Lives In You', 'The Sound of Silence', 'Stand By Me' and even 'Amazing Grace'). On top of it all, Castaldo is also a producer and mixer (he has a remix EP dedicated to 'Over the Rainbow'). Fans of the more emotive performers such as Mario Frangoulis and Alfie Boe will appreciate Castaldo all the more.
