Mario Biondi Celebrates 20 Years of Soul-Jazz Magic – Live at Kaufleuten Zurich
His voice is warm, sensual, and unmistakable – rich in depth and character. Mario Biondi, born Mario Ranno, discovered his passion for music at an early age alongside his father, singer Stefano Biondi, whose stage name he later adopted as a tribute. Over the years, a wide range of influences and experiences have shaped him into the extraordinary artist he is today.
It has now been twenty years since Biondi’s distinctive baritone first captivated audiences around the world with his breakout single “This Is What You Are” – a song that has since become a modern soul-jazz classic. To mark this milestone, he released a brand-new version, “This Is What You Are (20th Anniversary)”, on September 12, featuring a lineup of acclaimed international jazz musicians. In 2026, the celebration continues with a major anniversary tour. Swiss fans can look forward to experiencing Mario Biondi live at Kaufleuten Zurich on March 8, 2026.
The story of “This Is What You Are” began in 2004, when the song was first released under the pseudonym Wes-a-Bee to introduce Biondi to the Japanese market. A few months later, British DJ Norman Jay discovered the track and featured it on his BBC playlists – a turning point that launched Biondi’s international career. In 2005, he achieved widespread success in the UK and Italy, and a year later, a re-recorded version with the High Five Quintet cemented his reputation on the global jazz scene.
Since then, Mario Biondi has released twelve albums, earned numerous awards, and performed over 120 concerts in 25 countries with his “Crooning Undercover” project. In 2025, he reached another impressive milestone – having performed live in 50 countries worldwide, a testament to his lasting artistry and magnetic presence.
