Alfie Zappacosta

Join us for an intimate evening with multi Juno and American Music Award winner Alfie Zappacosta. Italian born, Canadian singer-songwriter, guitarist and producer Alfie digs deep into his own heart and translates those emotions into imaginative literary and philosophical insights. Alfie delivers his artistry, a sophisticated and unforgettable performance of rich soaring vocals and captivating melodies. The latest of his 16 albums, Saved, released by Alma Records in 2021, draws on jazz, pop and rock elements. Alfie’s vocal dexterity and song writing proficiency were uncovered by a publisher while writing for his first original band “Surrender, a five-piece group that recorded three albums in the late 1970s into the early 1980s. As a solo artist Alfie's career took off with a legacy of hits that brought him to the world's attention. "Start Again”, “Passion”, “When I Fall in Love Again” and “Nothing Can Stand In Your Way” written with David Foster. In 1988 he was awarded JUNOs for “Album of The Year’ and “Most Promising Artist”, and American Music Award for “Most Popular Album of The Year”. These hit songs were originally written for acoustic and jazz presentations. Writing for radio began to rub against his musical integrity and he became frustrated with the demands of music trends. Alfie broke from the stereotype and began to write the lyrics and melodies that were authentically him, revealing his insight into relationships and his advanced knowledge of music.”
