The SHOW
The beating heart of the Innuendo Experience is the energy of a band made up of elite professionals, capable of sustaining a complex sonic architecture with a magnetic stage presence. Leading the lineup is Antonello Carozza, widely recognized as the finest Freddie Mercury impersonator in Italy. His performance is far from a mere imitation; it is a total artistic transposition backed by a world-class career:
- Television Consecration: Winner of RAI 2’s hit show Like a Star, where he was awarded by renowned host Amadeus for his incredible interpretative fidelity.
- International Scope: Frontman and finalist in major television productions such as The Voice Russia, The Voice Italy, Amici, and the prestigious stage of the Sanremo Music Festival.
- Symphonic Experience: Lead vocalist for the international project SYMPHONIKA, customed to dominating Europe's largest rock-symphonic stages.
Flanking him is an exceptional team of musicians boasting prestigious collaborations with renowned national and international artists. This synergy of talent flawlessly recreates the iconic sound of the original records: from the layered vocal harmonies to the signature guitar architectures, every detail is reproduced with a tonal fidelity and performing intensity that honors Queen’s studio discography. Innuendo Experience thus stands as a top-tier artistic production, where the reliability of a high-profile band meets the magic of a timeless performance, tailored for the most demanding stages.
Fabio Varalta: Guitars
He is a guitarist and record producer who embodies the image and orchestral sound of Brian May with extraordinary dedication and passion. Attentive to every single nuance, he curates every detail with almost scientific rigor, from researching the famous "tone" of Vox amplifiers to faithfully reproducing those layered harmonies that made Queen's sound unique.
From the precision of his guitar technique to his unmistakable look, he successfully captures the essence of the legendary British guitarist on stage. Wielding the Red Special with seamless naturalness, he blends technical complexity with the poetic warmth and authentic rock spirit that made music history.
Giulio Bogoni: Bass
He began studying the piano at the age of eight, later cementing his academic training at the "A. Pedrollo" Conservatory with degrees in Percussion and Music Education. A multi-instrumentalist and producer, he has developed deep expertise in both electric bass and guitar over the years, working extensively as a session musician in the studio for various bands and recording projects.
His live career has seen him collaborate with prominent artists across genres ranging from pop to rock, including Dario Ballantini, Fiordaliso, Valter Nudo, Sarah Jane Morris, and Elya. He is currently an integral part of the Symphonika project, performing regularly in major national and international theaters, bringing grand classics of rock history to the stage, rearranged for a symphonic orchestra.
Cristian Paganotto: Drums
He is one of the most versatile and highly regarded session drummers and musicians on the Italian scene. Holding a conservatory degree in Pop Drums, Jazz, and Classical Percussion, he has collaborated throughout his career with nationally and internationally renowned artists such as Ivana Spagna, Johnson Righeira, Tracy Spencer, Tony Esposito, Gazebo, Irene Grandi, Marco Ferradini, Via Verdi, P. Lion, Gianluca Grignani, Diego Arrigoni (Modà), Riccardo Fogli, Nevruz, and many others.
In 2024, he performed at the Verona Arena alongside legendary multi-Grammy Award-winning producer Trevor Horn—known for his work with Seal, Robbie Williams, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, Yes, Paul McCartney, and the Pet Shop Boys—in a performance broadcast live worldwide. That same year, he performed with Righeira at the Inalpi Arena Live event, and in 2023 at the iconic Concerto del Primo Maggio (May Day Concert), both of which were broadcast internationally.
With over 70 albums recorded and more than 1,500 concerts across all five continents, he also secured second place at the "Festival del Ritmo" International Drum Competition in 2018, performing the notoriously complex "The Black Page No. 1" by Frank Zappa.
