Through participation in February 2011 at San Remo festival, he won the trophy for the novice class, earning the award for music criticism and its participation in the Eurovision in the colors of Italy.
Raphael Gualazzi mixes jazz and blues beautifully, influences that are felt strongly in "Madness of Love", a song which he also wrote. Ranked 3rd with "Popular" starring Eric Saade, Sweden back in the standings after a 11th place last year. Eric Saade contributed to this success through his many musical experiences.
Indeed, despite his young age, the singer has already signed with a record company, released an album and 3 singles. All this from the age of 13! In 2007, he participated in a competition that aims to form a "boy band" and become one of four singers chosen for the adventure of "What's Up." Together they will produce the album "In Pose 'in 2008, and record the Swedish version of a song from" Camp Rock "from Walt Disney.
