His music draws from Sicilian folk traditions and artists like Nick Drake and Bob Dylan, with lyrics that often feel personal and introspective. He first gained wider attention in 2000 with the album 'Akkuerello,' whose title track became a signature song for him.

His discography includes albums such as 'Canzoni della Cupa' from 2002, 'Amore di Plastica' from 2007, and 'L'amore e' un Divano' from 2010.
