Roby Meola
- Composer
- Music Department
Roby Meola was born in Genoa, Italy. He showed love and talent for
music at an early age, and by twelve, had already written 100 songs. At
fourteen, he could play drums, keyboard, bass and guitar. Roby's
guitar prowess is reminiscent of Frampton, Hendrix and Santana, and he
quickly mastered the styles of jazz, rock and the blues and taught jazz
and rock guitar at the Roland School of Music before the age of
eighteen. He toured Europe with his first band, MG40, at the age of
eighteen, and by the time he was twenty, started his career as a music
producer and arranger. While working with a number of Italian music
artists, Roby recorded several albums for the band Bandassa. Several
years later he moved to London after a short tour with his third group,
a jazz-rock band called MCL, and began to significantly broaden his
versatility as a producer and songwriter, working with such artists as
Mica Paris and Fierce.
It was in London where Roby and Charlie met and both finally felt the collaborative expression they sought. Together they created MAXX, embodying their unique voices and making a commitment to creating "real music." Within twelve months, they have written, produced, and engineered more than 120 songs. The group's first album will take listeners on a peerless, eclectic musical journey that can only be described as uniquely MAXX.
