Young, eclectic, up and coming singer, songwriter, Filippo Voltaggio sizzles with high energy in his performances, personally, vocally, and musically, worthy of his "electric" last name. The Burbank Leader acknowledges "... he’s setting the world of music on fire."

Amici Magazine wrote of him "Filippo has created a new craze - at once satisfying the public’s thirst for lyricism and melody of the classics and the rhythm and style of today." Both his debut CD, Reel Italian - Love Songs From the Silver Screen, and his new CD, Love In Italiano, feature some of the best Italian love songs and favorite Italian Standards which Filippo elegantly styles and makes his own. His new CD also features three of his original songs. As critiqued by Romantic Times, "Filippo’s new CD is a perfect blend of flirty, fast-paced tempos and slow, seductive songs performed in an enchanting combination of Italian and English." Both CDs sell in stores in Europe and nationally as well as on the Internet and on TV ads.

From America to Italy to Hong Kong and beyond, the demand for personal appearances from the stage to the big screen and radio to television, is quickening, as is media attention. On the big screen he has sung in the box-office hit A Walk in the Clouds and in Europa. His many television and talk show appearances include Hollywood’s number one rated KTLA Morning News, PBS, and RAI UNO International broadcasts in Italy. His music also plays on selected nationwide radio markets and he has appeared live, in-studio and on-air on numerous interviews.

Filippo is a five-time winner of the Sergio Franchi Vocal Competition, a NIAF and MAF grant winner, a Eugene O’Neil Cabaret Symposium Fellow, and a nominee for Entertainer of the year by the Southern California Motion Picture Council. Nonetheless, he is comfortable making any stage his home as singer, entertainer or emcee in intimate cabarets or headlining performances on large stages with full orchestra (or big band) before large audiences. So versatile in fact, that he actually began his professional singing career in leading opera and musical comedy roles, and in 2003 premiered the role of Socrates in the world premier of the rock opera Visions.

His looks, voice, European background, acting, storytelling and musical abilities all contribute to his success and international appeal. He sings in several different languages including English, Italian, Latin, Spanish, French, German, Sicilian, Portuguese (Brazilian), and Neapolitan. Canada’s Mirror Magazine wrote "Not just a pretty face and a beautiful voice, but a consummate entertainer, complete with an uncanny skill for storytelling, full of humor and arresting cool, calm, collected, but always sparkling, stage personality."

Though close to his European heritage, Filippo is not the stereotypical Italian-American. Often compared to Dean Martin because of his sultry baritone voice, his laid-back, easy-going personality and European sense of style, Filippo sports long curly blonde locks, blue-green eyes and a Californian accent. In a front-page article, The Los Angeles Daily News put it this way; "...rising star...[Filippo] resembles a tan version of British Rock musician Peter Frampton, but sounds more like Julio Iglesias or Frank Sinatra..."

Live, on CDs, Film, TV or Radio, he is always a class act and leaves his audiences energized and feeling as if he had sung from his heart to theirs. How fitting to note that his given name Filippo Voltaggio translates into "Love Voltage" or appropriately, "LOVE ENERGY!"
