Calogero (born Calogero Maurici on July 30, 1971 in Échirolles, near Grenoble) is a French singer.

By the age of six Calogero had already taken an interest in music. He quickly learned to play several instruments, including the flute, piano and bass, and in 1986 became the lead singer and song-writer for the band Charts. He started it together with his brother, Gioacchino, and a childhood friend, Francis Maggiulli. Between 1989 and 1997, “Charts” released 5 albums : “L’océan sans fond” (1989), “Notre monde à nous” (1991), “Hannibal” (1994), “Acte 1” (1995), and “Changer” (1997).

As the band began to lose its momentum, Calogero decided to launch himself as a solo artist and gathered important connections by writing songs and collaborating with already popular artists, such as Zazie and Pascal Obispo. The latter helped produce Calogero’s first solo album Au milieu des autres (2000). His second album, Calogero (2002) was a huge success with the hit singles “En apesanteur”, “Aussi libre que moi”, “Tien an men” and “Prendre racine”. Finally, in 2004, Calogero released .calog3ro, containing “Face à la mer”, a duet with French rapper Passi, and several other top singles such as “Yalla” and “Si seulement je pouvais lui manquer”.

Calogero’s moving lyrics and frail, tender voice have made him one of France’s top pop/rock singers.

Je l'ai vu en concert vendredi au dome de marseille et je me suis éclatée sans être une "fan" je connaissais les chansons les + connues et surtout son dernier album et en concert il est top : l'ambiance est assez rock, les musiciens très bons et les jeux de lumières très réussis. je suis sortie du concert : j'avais + de voix, j'avais mal aux mains (à force de taper des mains) et aux jambes (à force de sauter) en résumé : je conseille d'aller le voir à son prochain concert près de chez vous !!! GENIAL KOI !!!

J'avais pas mal d'apriori avec lui,faut dire que Calogero ça m'évoquait Face à la mer ,qui a une réputation ''artistique'' assez naze auprès des gens ici...Mais quand j'ai entendu ?''C'est dit'' pour la première fois à la radio...Une instru comme ça ,wow !J'en suis même venu à pleurer de joie quand elle a été diffusé 2 fois sur 2 radio différente à la suite...''C'est dit'' ne fera probablement jamais parti des chansons que j'ai le plus écouté ,mais c'est surement une des plus belle chanson que j'ai pu écouté jusqu'à maintenant !Respect à l'artiste !

"Danser Encore", "En Apesanteur" and "L'ombre et la lumière" are my favourites. But all in all I love all songs of Calogero. Ce sont parfait! :)
