In the organizer's words:

AZZURRO ITALO-POP-REVUE

1 DOLCI SIGNORI have been on tour in an almost unchanged line-up since their debut in 2002 and, with their unique musical philosophy of combining an Italian attitude to life, authenticity, musical professionalism and a Mediterranean joy of playing, they have hit the heart of their ever-growing fan base.

Musica, Passione, Emozione - this is exactly what the two southern Italian singers Rocky Verardo and Gianni Carrera celebrate together with four internationally successful top musicians in an inimitable manner and with great success. It is not for nothing that the six signori are considered the most successful and popular ltalo band in this country. Every year, they delight audiences between Hamburg and Milan, Sylt and Zermatt, the Mediterranean and the North Sea on their extensive summer tours.

They can also point to first-class references in the open-air sector, in concert halls, at events and galas throughout Europe and, with Abu Dhabi, even beyond Europe's borders.

MICHAEL THOMAS (drums) is " ... the best drummer in the world." (Rocky Verardo) He is the rhythmic foundation of the show, studied drums in New York and Los Angeles and has been able to inspire 1 DOLCI SIGNORI and the fans with his drumset since 2005. Rocky claims that Michael swallowed a metronome as a child and built it into his body.

RICHIE NECKER (guitar, mandolin) probably has southern ancestors in his lineage. He fits perfectly into the stage setting of an Italian band and is allowed to sing " . ... oggi e una bella giornata ... . " Richie founded his first rock band at the age of 11 and has many years of experience as a musician live, in the studio and in television appearances solo and with well-known artists from almost all musical genres. He gives the music of I DOLCI SIGNORI the necessary dose of rock'n'roll.

ROCKY VERARDO (vocals) is" ... the smallest of the Signori and the man with the strong voice ... " (0-tone trad. intro of the show) Growing up with the traditional music of his homeland, the Salento in the deepest south of Italy, Rocky decided to go to Germany in 2000 to seek his fortune in the north. He found it in music and love and now lives with his family in Bavaria. With his intense and powerful voice, as the main singer he is largely responsible for the goosebumps factor at the DOLCI SIGNORI show.

GIANNI CARRERA (vocals, guitar) is southern Italian and a musician with every fiber of his being. He comes from Luzzi in Calabria, studied music in Cosenza and has lived in Germany since 2000. His charismatic stage presence quickly made Gianni the favorite of the female I DOLCI SIGNORI fans. Incidentally, Gianni also builds guitars himself, and if you've ever held a real Carrera guitar in your hand, you can immediately sense how much passion and love for music runs through his veins.

ULI ZRENNER-WOLKENSTEIN (bass) tours the world, with Australia and Antarctica now missing from his global list of references as a successful bassist in rock, jazz and classical music. After spending many years in Vienna, where he discovered his love of Italian pop music after a concert by Jovanotti, he now lives with his family in Regensburg and performs on stages all over the world.

BERND MEYER (piano, accordion) as "il professore" is responsible for the sophisticated arrangements of I DOLCI SIGNORI. When he is not on stage with I DOLCI SIGNORI, he is one of the most successful and most booked keyboardists and pianists in southern Germany. As a successful arranger, he is also active in the theater and musical sector (repeatedly at the Landestheater Niederbayern), but he is only really happy when he is allowed to unpack his favorite instrument, the accordion, at I DOLCI SIGNORI
