Antonello Addabbo

Born in 1979, Anto Addabbo is a guitar player, songwriter, arranger, producer and performer led into the music scene by pure passion and commitment. Known as a vanguard of the Italian metal scene for his passionate and technical guitar technique, blending his love for the aggression of metal with the melodic phrasing of rock/fusion, Anto Addabbo is the founder of modern metal powerhouse Reality Grey, being now artist for popular brands like Jackson Guitars, EMG Pickups and MooerAudio. He has appeared on popular publications like Gear Gods, MetalInjection and many others. From their debut in 2006, has enjoyed success as a ‘Modern Extreme Metal’ band, an assessment they both appreciate and challenge as they quest to define and pioneer their own signature in the metal scene. Release after release, Reality Grey have proven to be a tight five-piece able to break the melodic death metal dogmas, producing a challenging and inviting hybrid of modern metal in its pure form: melody, brutal and complex.
