EROS RAMAZZOTTI

Eros Ramazzotti was born in Rome on October 28, 1963, in the Cinecittà neighborhood. He studied without much effort, but since he was a child he cultivated two passions: soccer and song. At eighteen he made his debut at the Castrocaro Festival and signed his first record deal. The following year, in 1982, he released his first 45 rpm Ad un amico.
In 1984 he participated in the New Proposals section of the Sanremo Festival and achieved good success with Una terra promessa. Thus he also participated by right in the 1985 edition of the Sanremo Festival. He presented Una storia importante (included in his first album, Cuori agitati), and the reception was such that it allowed him to attempt a first approach to the European market. The following year he participated again in the Sanremo Festival and won among the big names with Adesso tu (included in the album Nuovi eroi).

Since 1987, each of his new albums has been simultaneously released in Spanish for Latin American countries.
In 1990, after two years of absence from the record market, he released the album In ogni senso, and decided to try to climb the US music market. He performed at Radio City Music Hall in New York and the show was a triumph. The new, very long tour ended with the double live album (Eros in concert), released on the occasion of the concert broadcast worldwide from Barcelona.
The album Tutte Storie turned out to be the most ambitious and challenging work of his career: the outcome exceeded all expectations, thanks also to the sounding board provided by the video clip made by director Spike Lee.

In 1996, the European tour ended just a few days before the birth of Aurora Sophie, daughter of Eros and his partner Michelle Hunziker.

During his career he has had numerous collaborations with internationally renowned artists, such as Tina Turner, Cher, Anastacia, Ricky Martin, Julio Iglesias, Luis Fonsi, Helene Fischer, Joe Cocker, Laura Pausini, Luciano Pavarotti, Andrea Bocelli and Patsy Kensit.
