Alexia is an Italian singer, born Alessia Aquilani May 19, 1967 in La Spezia.
She had several international hits in English in the early 90s before
recording in Italian in the 00s.
Alexia started working for Italian producer Roberto Zanetti (better known as
Robyx) in 1990, as a back-up singer to several of Zanetti's eurodance acts,
including Double You and Ice MC. In 1995 she had her first solo single, "Me
And You", on Zanetti's label, ZYX Music.

This was followed by a variety singles that were collected, along with
original tracks, in her first album, Fun Club, published in 1997 by Sony
Music's subsidiary Dance Pool.
In her second album, The Party, Alexia started moving from eurodance to pop
music, and in her third album, Happy, featured her first track sung in
Italian, "Te Amo". In 2002, she abandoned eurodance and started singing
almost exclusively in Italian. She made her first appearance at the San Remo
Music Festival in 2002, coming second with "Dimmi Come", and returned the
following year, winning with "Per Dire Di No". |
