Music
While the self-titled first CD remained loyal to Aldo’s classic rock roots his second endeavor will surprise listeners with its unique contemporary sound. Featuring fresh material this high-energy modern rock album will captivate fans old and new. Aldo’s anticipated release date is late 2008.
Growing up in Adelaide Australia, Aldo Leopardi was the rebel student sitting in the back of dental school class sporting a black AC/DC muscle T-shirt and crazed hairstyle. Aldo conquered the stereotypical image dental professors invariably placed on him by graduating at 21 becoming the youngest dentist in Australia. He now has a Master’s degree in Prosthodontics (cosmetic and restorative dentistry) from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and an American dental degree from the University of Detroit Mercy Michigan.
The desire to continue his dental career and pursue his music interest in the United States led Aldo on a nationwide quest to find a place to call home. In 1999 he discovered the beauty of the Rocky Mountains. Aldo moved to Denver and now has a successful dental practice in Greenwood Village Colorado.
While becoming a leader in the field of dentistry Aldo never strayed from his love of music. Music has always been the passion that feeds his soul. The goal of becoming a rock star began at the age of 10 when Aldo first picked up a guitar. After being featured in various rock bands since 16 the passion for producing an independent rock CD continued to burn. Finding the time to realize his vision albeit a calendar consumed by his practice and educational lectures became Aldo’s biggest hurdle. Every spare moment was spent in the recording studio where he wrote arranged, sang, performed and produced his first album. Featuring a fresh edge to the classic guitar driven rock sound Aldo seeks to appeal to a diversified audience.
The filming of “Always Be” is the realization of a dream. Mike Vargas of Digital Events (www.digitalevents.tv) and his phenomenal team conceptualized and produced the video with director Jordan Horowitz of MTV in three magnificent Denver locations. The opening day was recorded with a full band at the Denver Studio Complex. A fabulous multi million dollar Cherry Creek home hosted the distraught lover scene on the second day. The final day was taped in Denver’s LoDo area commencing at the award winning Italian restaurant Venice Ristorante (1700 Wynkoop St) before concluding with an emotion charged energetic street scene that highlights Coors Field and Union Station as the Denver landmark backdrop. Although Aldo has no professional acting experience the part came natural for him because the song is based on a true life tête-à-tête. He describes the making of the video as an “exhilarating event but melancholy due to its emotional essence.”
After three years of an exhausting schedule the public can finally take notice of Aldo’s harmonic objectives. The response to the album has been extremely positive.
The primary website www.aldoleopardimusic.com and his Myspace page www.myspace.com/aldoleopardi have become hotspots for related information. His CD is now available at most major online sites such as Itunes Amazon, Yahoo Music and Rhapsody. Aldo is currently auditioning musicians to put together a quality touring band to perform local CD release shows.

Though you might like to see me in my old band 404. I have changed a bit since then.
I have just added "Age Of Innocence" to my page, it is a song about growth and on how things may look bad one day and your dreams maybe shattered, in time a new dream can be found.
I hope you like it and if you haven't been to my page for a while there a lot of new songs you can hear. My first CD "Time" is at MF and is going through the final admin stages with them so if you like "Age Of Innocence" and want it on CD it will be available.
Just thought I'd drop by and let you know that I have a new song for you to listen to "No More" is the first song to be released on MusicForte from the Time CD. I hope you can find time to listen to it. It is a soft guitar ballad which about the end of a relationship.
Just added "When Death Divides" I wrote this song after losing my Aunty Bet. I loved her very much and she was the closest to me, closer than my own mother. She was a very special person.
Also you might not have heard "I Want You Back"
I hope you like the darker songs so far, from "Where do I Go?" I have featured
"Nothing Goes As Planned" a song about living with poverty and the confusion, the human struggle to survive.
"Man With A Gun" Gave me a lot of positive feedback to which is probably my darkest song yet.
This weeks song is "Always Be The One" which deals with the frustration of keeping your loved one knowing that you do love her."
If you haven't had a chance to listen please do. Next week will feature the last of the songs from "Where Do I Go? as in September I will be featuring songs from the album "Time" which will be available to buy on CD from the middle of next month.
New song added "Man With A Gun". This is one of my personal favourites. Not for everyone! It is seriously dark. The character in this song is definately someone I wouldn't want to meet.
This is the second song from the "Where Do I Go" album, the other was "Nothing Goes As Planned"
Something to get your teeth into. Never hear that one before lol.
Almost in August and it is another lovely weekend. I have just changed from songs from "Riding On A Dark Cloud", to some of my darker songs. I hope you like them.
I am starting off with a song about poverty, no it isn't about feed the poor. It is just about the confusion an human struggle to survive. While "Riding On A Dark Cloud" the music is very 60's based this is different more synths and much darker.
I hope you drop my and give the song a listen and other songs if you have time.
