FIL DI FERRO were born in 1981 and since then they have been considered one of the best Italian hard rock groups. They're first at a regional rock music festival in 1983 and later appeared on two RAI TV shows (during which they recorded three song videos).

This period line-up includes Michele DEROSA drummer, Bruno GALLO bass guitarist, Leonardo FIORE vocalist and Danilo GHIGLIERI guitarist. Their first Lp "HURRICANES" was released in 1986 with Sergio ZARA as the new vocalist and Claudio DE VECCHI as the new guitarist. One year later FIL DI FERRO and other groups played in concert at the rock music temple, the Hammersmith Odeon, in London. At this concert Miki FIORITO is the new guitarist. The concert - previously recorded - is played during the show "Rock a mezzanotte" (Rock at midnight) on Italia 1 and the songs performed are among the compilation "italian Rock Invasion" produced by SAXON Pete HINTON in Saw Meel Studios in Foley, Cornovaglia.

In 1988 the second Lp "FIL DI FERRO" is recorded with Fonit Cetra in Milan (drum track) and with Medicina Studios in Bologna (other tracks). It's produced by Guy BEDMEAD (producer of calibre artists like Rod Stewart, Yes, E.L.P., Motorhead...) Years full of live performances follow also outside the Italian border and in 1990 FDF takes up a tour all over Europe getting broad consensus and good reviews.

The realisation of the group's third Lp "ROCK ROCK ROCK" sees two songs collaboration of Victor ZINCHOUK (successful Russian guitarist www.zinchuk.ru) and FUNKY LIPS singer Roberta BACCIOLO. The Lp is released at the end of 1992 and Miki FIORITO takes over as the new group's vocalist. The result is a good mix of 70's hard rock, blues and pure rock'n roll!!!

Last FDF cd called "IT WILL BE PASSION" includes six new lyrics and six rearranged ones. It's a big success according to popular demand at concerts and e-mail requests. Also, there are two new members to the band: Francesco BARBIERATO bass guitarist and Piero LEPORALE vocalist. The record is subtitled "Live in studio" because all instruments - voice excluded - are recorded live, with Max TRABUCCO collaboration as sound technician who has been involved in taking care of FDF production with Michele DE ROSA for the last few years.

The second last band formation is a breaK for FDF sound: Michele DE ROSA (drum), Miki FIORITO (guitar) Sabrina ZUPPARDI (vocals), Gianni CASTELLINO (bass); the choice of a female vocalist although interesting and well accepted at a live performance, doesn't fully convince Michele DE ROSA. He then decides to give a hard new twist to the band by proposing Alex VERANDO as the new guitarist who brings a progressive metal sound to the band and keeping the Sheehaniano Gianni CASTELLINO as bass guitarist. Phil The Steel's (ARANCIO Filippo) warm voice finally brings a new true metal expression to the groovy band.

The latest FDF addition is a second guitar left to Gianluca UCCHEDDU with a clear 80's style metal to give the band an even louder sound.

The beginning of 2010 brings more changes to the formation of the band.

For various commitments art / work, Philip and Alex leave the band;aat this point  , the charismatic voice of Elvis TABERNA replacing Philip, while the guitar department is awarded only to Gianluca.

They are the new FIL DI FERRO.  Current projects concern the production of the band recording new material and many live in Italy and abroad.
