Cette page sur Myspace est dédiée à Gino Vannelli, né le 16 juin 1952 à Montréal, Québec. Gino Vannelli est un auteur-compositeur-interprète canadien. Il sort son premier single à 16 ans chez RCA Canada. Mais c'est à New York qu'il signe son premier album en 1973 chez A&M Records chez qui il en fera cinq autres.
En 1978, son album "Brother To Brother" est un triomphe notamment pour ses arrangements hors du commun et des lives ahurissants de virtuosité. C'est après le depart de Herb Alpert que Gino Vannelli quitte A&M pour Arista qui produira Nightwalker en 1981.
C'est en 1985 qu'il rejoint HME pour un album d'anthologie Black Cars qui ne l'empêchera pas de quitter HME pour CBS deux ans plus tard. Il y produira Big Dreamers Never Sleep avant de monter son propre studio dans les environs de Portland (Oregon) en 1990. Il signe alors avec Verve pour deux albums : Yonder Tree en 1995 et Slow Love en 1998.
Puis apres deux annees de cours de chants, il se lance dans le classique avec l'album Canto sorti chez BMG Canada en 2003.
Apres ses incursions dans le jazz (Yonder Tree) et le classique (Canto), Gino décide de retourner à ses fondamentaux et signe avec Universal, devenu entre temps proprietaire du catalogue A&M, pour un ultime album, These are the days (2006 ), qui reprend sept de ses premiers succès.
Depuis février 2009, un nouvel album " A good thing" est disponible à la vente .(en attente d'éléments supplémentaires concernant ce disque).
Gino Vannelli (born June 16, 1952 in Montreal, Quebec) is a Canadian singer/songwriter from a musical family, his father was a big band musician. Gino Vannelli played drums at a young age and after finishing high school, he studied musical theory at McGill University.
He eventually went to Los Angeles, California where he signed with Herb Alpert's A&M Records, releasing his first album with that record label in 1973. Gino's brother, Joe, served as arranger and keyboardist for most of his recording career. At a time when polyphonic synthesizers were non-existent, Joe overdubbed multiple parts to create a texture of sound that was largely progressive for the early 1970s.
Gino's 1978 song, "I Just Wanna Stop," earned him an American Grammy Award nomination. He won Canada's Juno Award for Best Male Artist in 1976 and 1979. Also, Gino and Joe Vannelli shared the Juno Award for Recording Engineer of the Year three times: in 1986 for "Black Cars," in 1987 for "Wild Horses"/"Young Lover," and in 1991 for "The Time of Day"/"Sunset on L.A.".
Gino appeared on Episode 4 of SCTV/Network 90 in 1981.
Vannelli's other hits include "Living Inside Myself" (1980) and "Wild Horses" (1987).
In 1993, Québécoise singer Martine St. Clair recorded "Wheels of Life" as a duet with Vannelli as well as a French-language version called "L'Amour Est Loi".
Vannelli has released two albums in recent years, including These Are the Days in 2006.
Now, Gino lives and works in The Netherlands and his new album " A good thing" is available in Europe since february 2009.
