GIUSEPPE "PEPPE" MEROLLA
has been a musician since he was a child. Born on December 2,1969, Peppe began his musical career as a drummer, singer, and actor at the age of Five.Peppe performed and toured with his parents, Tina Barone and Gino Morelli, who are still professional singers and actors. The Merolla family performed in theatres and festivals throughout Italy, Canada, and the United States. With his family, Peppe recorded his first albums as a singer and a drummer as well as worked as actors on many television shows. While playing a concert in New York City, Peppe and his family were the opening act for the legendary Frank Sinatra. Mr. Sinatra was so mpressed with Peppe’s talent that he nicknamed him "LITTLE JOE. " At the age of 14, ZEUS records signed Peppe to a three-record contract as a singer under the name of "LITTLE JOE." Peppe went on to record two more records with VISCO DISC. Knowing that Peppe had a great talent, his parents enrolled him in the Conservatory of San Pietro A Majella in Naples, where he earned a masters degree in Classical Trumpet. As a trumpet player, he performed for two years on a national television show with the famous Claudio Simonetti Orchestra . After receiving his degree from the conservatory, Peppe decided to pursue his love for the drums. He studied with a nationally-known Italian jazz drummer and percussionist, Walter Scotti, During this time, he began to develop a strong appreciation of jazz and was exposed to all forms of commercial music. Peppe also began developing his natural talent as a singer as well as an actor. Peppe acted in three movies. In the popular movie, Scugnizzi, not only did Peppe play one of the lead characters, but he also sang the movie’s soundtrack. The soundtrack became nationally popular; the movie won an Italian Oscar at the International Venice Movie Festival. Singing and playing drums with his family gave him the experience and appreciation for the Italian classics. Peppe is not only at home with singing Italian classics, but has also gained recognition as a singer of contemporary music. Peppe has composed and arranged music for many singers, including his sister Anna Merolla, a well-known vocalist touring throughout Europe. At the age of eighteen, Peppe was contracted to play in the Orchestra Scarlatti of Naples as a drummer and percussionist. He toured and appeared on RAI national television with several nationally-known stars, such as: Andrea Bocelli, Eugenio Bennato, Pietra Montecorvino ,Raffaella Carra , Katia Ricciarelli ,and Ornella Vanoni.
He has performed at the Umbria Jazz Festival, Pisa Jazz Festival, and Siena Jazz Festival. In Europe, his other credits include performances with Enrico Rava, Guido Pistocchi ,Mimmo Epifani, and Franco Ambrosetti . Now living in the United States, Peppe performs as a bandleader and sideman for concerts and festivals throughout the U.S. To keep close to his roots, he performs for Italian festivals throughout the world as a singer. He is a frequent clinician for many colleges and schools. He has recorded and performed with:Eddie Henderson,Jeremy Pelt Russell Ferrante from the Yellow Jackets band, Larry Schneider, Frank Ku-umba Lacy, John Farnsworth, Joe magnarelli, steve Davis,Mike Ledonne Gerald Cannon, Sid Simmons,Mike boone, John webber, Philip Upchurch, Bruce Forman, Vincent Herring , Norman Brown, and many others.
