Luca Capizzi was born on December 7, 1989 in Liestal, Basilea Campagna (Switzerland). Italian blood flows from his father Lorenzo and Spanish from his mother Susanna in his veins. Luca has an older brother named Christian. Even very small, Luca shows his interest in music. Already at the age of three he sang with the grandmother on the notes of "Brutta", a song by Alessandro Canino. In his youth, Lucas' dream was to step on a stage and to convey his great love for music to people. And so it was when Luca took part in a music event entitled "LA CORRIDA" at the age of twelve that he sang "The Things That Lived" by Laura Pausini and was ranked second.
