Alessio Cristofoli nasce a Verona il 17/11/1995. Fin da quando è bambino sviluppa una forte passione per la musica, soprattutto da quando il fratello maggiore fa ascoltare i primi cd all'età di sei anni. Le influenze punk rock di quel decennio formano in lui il desiderio di avvicinarsi sempre più alla musica e all'età di circa 10 anni tocca con mano per la prima volta uno strumento, la batteria, che deve abbandonare ben presto per questioni di vicinato. All'età di tredici anni, grazie ad un compagno di classe viene travolto dal fascino della chitarra elettrica che si sposa con i gusti musicali da lui ascoltati. Cominciano i primi corsi di chitarra e la passione cresce giorno per giorno. All'età di 15 anni circa, per esigenze personali, comincia a scrivere i primi testi per comporre proprie canzoni che però restano privati fino al compiersi dei 17 anni che incide in un piccolo studio paesano il suo primo singolo "SEI", chitarra e voce. Da li in poi arrivano alcune partecipazioni a concorsi locali per farsi conoscere fino ad arrivare a Pisa ad un concorso televisivo con messa in onda su CANALE ITALIA 2 in tarda serata, arrivando alle fasi finali senza però vincere alcun premio. Il desiderio di conoscere il mondo della musica lo porta allo studio autodidatta del pianoforte, strumento che utilizza quotidianamente per produrre i suoi brani. Il 2019 è l'anno della svolta, viene chiamato per i provini di Amici di Maria De Filippi che però si concludono agli albori, quando ancora sono nelle fasi di selezione. Con qualche consapevolezza e maturazione in più comincia la ricerca in svariati studi di produzione a livello nazionale che lo portano a contatto con svariati produttori di rilievo. La conoscenza con 2 giovani musicisti e produttori Milanesi lo portano a stringere un legame lavorativo che sfocia nella produzione del suo primo effettivo singolo "FUORI PIOVE", brano che ha fatto guadagnare ad Alessio la selezione per un master negli studi di WARNER MUSIC ITALY nella Milano music week, andando a contatto con uno dei migliori producer del momento, Francesco Katoo Catitti. Il nuovo inedito "FUORI PIOVE" è ascoltabile ed acquistabile nei maggiori digital store del mondo. Dall'uscita di questo singolo il legame stretto li porterà a un progetto futuro ben più ampio, ricco di musica.
