What was the beginning pint for your music career? How did it all start?
I started playing guitar at 16 because I wanted to play the songs I like, over time I noticed I write riffs I thought were nice, tried to make complete songs out of them… Long story short, I’m at the top of the national rock chart!
Were there any bumps on the road? What kind of challenges did you have to deal with?
A lot of people around me don’t have the same ambitions as me, they don’t want to / don’t believe they’re blow up and be heard. I don’t give up on that dream, but it’s been hard finding suitable members to create a band, that’s why it’s a solo project and I solely focus on getting my music heard right now. Maybe with time I’ll start performing with live session artists, but money has been another challenge I have to deal with, and that’s a whole new rabbit hole.
What was the most fulfilling and satisfying moment so far?
Surpassing 10k monthly listeners on Spotify, such a huge feat for just a person in his twenties creating music in his bedroom. Hopefully it’s just a milestone on the road to greatness.
How would you describe the music that you typically create?
Emotionally driven balance between the beauty and the brutal.
What is your creative process like?
As a person with ADHD which comes with chronic sleeping problems, some of my greatest riffs just popped to my head out of nowhere in 3am, which made me rush to my computer and start writing.
Sometimes I can continue writing to create a structure, sometimes I’m stuck and have to wait to another 3am moment, but I make great songs and I write them fast, so I’m happy about it.
If you could change anything about the industry, what would it be?
Need to be a part of the industry to have an opinion about it, like I said, a guy in his 20s writing music in his bedroom 😉
If you were asked to give a piece of advice to upcoming bands, what would that be?
You’re going to make mistakes. You can learn as much as you can from big bands and even local bands around you with a bit more experience, but you’ll make your own. Never stop pushing regardless.
If you didn’t become a musician, what would you be doing now?
I’m a chemical engineering student and I race karts too!
What is new with the band at the moment? What are you currently working on and would like to share with the world?
The second half of 2025 is going to be super busy in hopes that 2026 will be a fun year for Venice Revive fans, we have a few covers planned and a full length album that we already started recording.
