Riccardo Adamo on SoundBetter

Graduate singer with several record collaborations in the assets.

I am a graduate singer at Conservatory of Music in Perugia (Italy), where I also attended two years the Composition course. The study of singing was always accompanied by a deepening also in contemporary music (both singing and composing), ranging from pop to metal and facing different styles and techniques. Always keeping "one foot on the stage", I began my career as a manager for opera singers, following several names of international scene and collaborating with opera agencies. But in the end the call of singing and writing my own music was stronger and I decided to go back to being a full time artist.

If you need a synthwave, synthpop, or indie vocalist, Riccardo is the right choice. He is easy to communicate with, values deadlines, and delivers high-quality stems that make it easy to mix and master your tracks. Not to mention, he's incredibly versatile and can adapt to different styles and moods.

Riccardo is talented and is an excellent vocalist who is able to breath a whole emotional story into his singing (especially after he was briefed about the real meaning of the lyrics). In addition, communication was smooth and friendly. Job was in Italian.
