John The Whistler biography
John The Whistler is the project of one man : Umberto Carli. Umberto was born in Africa during the 60s. Legend says it was the first time that they heard a baby whistling in the jungle! Suffering the heat of the country and doubting the mental health of their son, Umberto's parents flew back to Belgium after a while. Everything seemed to be OK until Umberto entered elementary school. One day, his teacher called Madame Simone was rushed in to a psychiatric clinic for nervous breakdown. The only think she has been able to say ever since is: "stop him whistling"... Legend also says that, at the age of 18, Umberto was fired from the army. The reason : making sonic trouble in the squad. The Umberto started a musical carreer. In 1994, he wrote lyrics for Beckie Bell's single In The Name Of Love. He began to spread his demos among record companies. The answer was always the same: great melodies but where are the lyrics ? So, Umberto decided to use words in his songs. However, he put a little whistling in them... After having charted in Denmark, Norway (#5) Germany and Israel with his first single tiltled I'm In Love, John proudly presented his new hitsingle Tell Me. A computer-generated character appeared in the music videos, singing along to the songs. An album was also released under Edel Records. Axel Breitung took part to 3 tracks as producer and remixer : She's My Girl, It's Crazy and Wild Wild Web. 2005 : Fabrizio Faniello, the Maltese representative at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2001, did a cover of I'm In Love. 2006 : Umberto Carli competed to be selected to represent Cyprus at Eurovision Song Contest 2006.
