Born in Naples, where I studied classical piano.
I moved my first steps in the Italian indie-rock scene as a session keyboardist and as an author/singer with my band The Struggle, a blues-rock piano/bass/drums trio. In 2009 the self-produced EP “Factory Tunes” was released.

Short after that, I relocated to Berlin, where I played around as The Struggle (with new band members) and in different other projects. Recently I reinvented myself as Tinkley, focusing my songwriting on more intimate, jazzy atmospheres.

My debut solo album “My Loving in the Winter”, has been released in Sep 2023 on all the digital music platform.
