Biography of MARK CAPUTO
I have begun to make music 13 years, when in order to make blow on a girl who played the pianoforte became account that I had to play some instrument also.
I did not succeed to conquer it but I continued to play equally.
The flauto sweet it has been my first instrument, unpleasant but obligatory boring and to the medium schools.
Subsequently, with to my beloved friend Tullio Calosci, decided that the guitar could be one instrument more stimulant in order to continue much to make something in the world of music. I bought therefore my first guitar, little bit of euro for a wood piece that however fascinated to me. From good didatta car I began to learn the first agreements above all reading some booklet, observing the larger boys who played and listening to discs.

Never they have not been a vituous one of the instrument, but that music, those melodie winning and l’estro compositivo of the brace Lennon McCartney stimulated to me to write mine first brani.
In 1982 I formed my first group: I, Tullio Calosci, Marco Urzi, Marco Faragli (today of the group 360 gradi) and Alessandro Cervo.
The band it was called “Stage” and we obviously played nearly all songs of the Beatles. |

Often it happens in young age, I began also to play to the
putting of Sunday, from the great Don Fabio Masi to Vingone.
The musicians who turned in church in the years ‘80 were huge: the Whisky Trail , Antonio Breschi , Carlo Corsini, Giacomo Gentiluomo.
I learned very from they and I had way also to try to play the piano, instrument that can to me buy very later.
Many songs that came played to the putting were originate them, or italian cover of Bob Dylan. They were beautiful songs much and the peoples of Vingone expressed desire of being able to listen them to house, even record to you on a disc.
