Gianluca Petralia was born in Sicily (Italy), but his soul has always belonged somewhere else. His music career started as a child when he won a music cassette (“Tunnel of Love” – Bruce Springsteen) from his brother over a basketball game. That was the precise moment when he contracted the ‘Music Virus’ and his personal battle between acceptance and passion began.

He has written, played and sung for more than 30 years and has won regional as well as national contests. His biggest influence is Bruce Springsteen, but he listened, and still listens, to a lot of classic as well as modern Rock. He and his former band, CIRCLE, released their debut album “Somewhere Under the Rainbow” in 2014. He has been produced in Italy, California and England. He’s been a proud member of Heaven & Earth since July 2020.
