Alfie Zappacosta
$30 in advance or $32.50 at the door.
Born in the small town of Sora, Italy (an hour south of Rome) in 1953, Alfie Zappacosta moved to Toronto with his parents when he was six months old. Deciding upon a music career in his teens, Zappacosta at first set his sights upon being a guitarist -until, his vocal prowess was uncovered. His recording debut came in 1979 as front man for the five-piece Toronto band Surrender. Releasing a self-titled album prompted radio airplay of "Find Your Way," "Turn Down The Mission" and "Buddy," the band went on the road, touring Canada to sell out crowds. In 1981, Surrender released a four-track EP called "No Surrender." The song "Start Again" became a staple of adult contemporary radio, and the simple honestly of "It's All Been Done Before" presented Zappacosta's undeniable songwriting and musical talents- launching a recording career that has spanned over 20 years.
