Paolo Ribaldini is the electrifying new vocal force of Leverage – a dynamo of raw energy and finesse. Born and bred in Italy, he ventured to Finland to dive deep into the heart of heavy metal, pursuing a PhD at the University of Helsinki, where academia met pure rock passion.
Paolo's voice is a love letter to the golden age of heavy rock. Drawing from legends like Ronnie James Dio, Rob Halford, and Eric Adams, he channels fire, soul, and precision into every note. But his passion knows no bounds—his musical cravings stretch from soul-stirring singer-songwriters to anthemic AOR, grand symphonies, sultry jazz, and even the golden icons of pop and R&B.
Armed with a devastating vocal range and an insatiable hunger for musical power, Paolo has propelled Leverage into a thrilling new era—one where the boundaries of melody and might are pushed further than ever before.
