Artist
Rik Sentenza, aka Riccardo Prestianni, was born in Catania at the end of the year 1968. From an early age he had little idea regarding his future, but he did have one certainty, later to be proved correct: music would never abandon him! His musical journey began during his pre-adolescent years with the study of the piano and the world of seven notes for almost five years, a period in which he formed his interest towards musical groups and the idea of forming his own. His first experience in musical groups began with “cover bands” with whom he played through ups and downs until he made another important discovery: playing “other people’s” music no longer satisfied or stimulated him. One evening, in an unexpected and difficult situation, alone in his car, listening to ‘Radio Montecarlo Night’, a song came to mind....written on the spot....crap! He wrote another song...crap again; but the seed was sown and was growing like the wave of a tsunami, forcing him to abandon everything (cover bands) and to follow his instincts. In the meantime Rik met Massimo Ferlito, a friend from Catania with a small recording studio, from here he began to give shape to his musical project with the production of “Il Fegato” (the Liver) with which he participated at the Festival of Castrocaro in 2001 and reached the semifinal. At the same time, together with Massimo, he began to write and arrange tracks for various Catanese artists, participating in numerous festivals but without achieving results wor
