Riccardo Gileno is a folk-pop songwriter from Trieste, city that lies on the north-eastern coast of Italy. Thanks to the Canadian origins of his father, born and raised in Toronto, he discovers music at an early age, mainly listening to British and North-American artists.
Riccardo Gileno’s solo project originates from his need to express himself through music, in order to find the driving force behind his personal growth. With his songs, he tries to escape his comfort zone, look inside himself and tell the listener what he found.
