Here is Francesco’s Bio taken from his webiste:

Hi, my name is Francesco Vecchio I’m a professional musician, drummer, and composer. I took private tuition with Roberto Cati and Giuseppe Carrozzo, and I attended the Saint Louis College of Music in Rome, studying drums & percussion with Gianni Di Renzo, Claudio Mastracci, and Roberto Gatto. In 2018 I graduated with a Bachelor’s degree of Jazz Course in Drums and Percussion with a thesis in “Melodic Drumming”. In September 2018 I completed a Master’s Degree in Music for Video Games at the “Santa Cecilia” Conservatory/Academy in Rome.

During the years I have worked as drummer and percussionist in different music situations from rock to funk and jazz. I have good knowledge of digital audio workstations (Reaper, Reason, Cubase) and audio editor (WaveLab, Audacity), producing electronic music for different projects and composing for video productions, video games, and mobile apps.

In 2016 I created my blog sharing original contents such as drum transcriptions, drum books, exercises, and everything related to the music. Cheers!

Francesco Vecchio
