A renowned local dance music artist with a buzz tied to his name, Vinnie recorded three singles with two that had popularity across the country. His debut single was a hit on the Billboard Underground Dance Music Chart in 2009. Shortly thereafter he put out a Christmas compilation titled “Mr. Christmas,” to celebrate his longstanding engagement in the annual St. George Theatre Christmas Show, where he is featured every December. Recently, he teamed up alongside Brooklyn singer Maria Venuto, where the two crossed over within the dance genre to put out an Italian remake of the songs Ci Sara and Felicita made famous by Al Bano and Romina Power.
