"Peppe" Merolla was born in Naples, Italy on
12/2/1969. At the age of five years, he began his music career,
accompanying his parents who were professional singers as a
drummer. They traveled all over Italy, and as far as the United
States and Canada, performing in theatres and festivals as the
main act.
After two years, Peppe embarked on his singing career, which
lead him to make his first recording at the age of seven, where
he sang and played drums as well. Eventually, his father decided
to enroll him in the Conservatory of San Pietro A Majella in
Naples, where he completed his masters in Classical Trumpet.
Nevertheless, amongst his intense classical training, Peppe
never abandoned his primary love, the drums. Hooking up with his
first drum teachers, Antonio Golino and Walter Scotti, two
nationally known Italian jazz drummers and percussionists, he
secretly widened his music technique and perspective. It was in
these years that he began to develop a strong appreciation of
Jazz, and became widely exposed to all forms of commercial music.
