John De Leo

John De Leo made his debut in the music world in the 1990s, founding Quintorigo together with his brothers Andrea and Gionata Costa, Stefano Ricci and Valentino Bianchi.

With this lineup, the singer-songwriter recorded the albums “Toad” (1999), “Gray” (2001) and “In Captivity” (2003), gaining appreciation and success.
