Marcello Milani is a singer, songwriter & guitarist.
Ask anyone who has seen Marcello live, and they’ll tell you that here is an artist whose songs and voice are filled with those rare attributes, honesty and integrity.
Marcello has performed at many festivals including Woodford Folk Festival, Livid Festival, Big Day Out & the National Folk Festival to name just a few. He is best known to many as the voice of Brisbane icons, The Toothfaeries. Arguably one of the most acclaimed and popular bands in the city’s recent history, The Toothfaeries, with Marcello out front, not only helped inspire the growth of Brisbane’s booming music scene, they influenced a small army of artists who have emerged in their wake.
Marcello also performed and recorded with amazing Afro/Roots groups Zimbira & Masala Music and is now thoroughly enjoying Tibet2Timbuk2, his collaboration with Tenzin Choegyal, Shen Flindell and friends.
The CD “Music is Life” features Marcello’s song Little Things. Beautiful Girl / Bhumo Zhema and Jhi Chung are examples of Marcello’s collaborative songwriting with Tenzin, while in Music Is Life / Menfanh he collaborates with Guinean musician Lansana Camara.
