Andrea Bocelli’s rising star son Matteo Bocelli performs new song on Kelly Clarkson WATCH

Having released his debut single Solo last year, Andrea Bocelli’s son has followed up with a second in Close. Landing earlier this month, Matteo Bocelli is gearing up for his first album later this year. In the meantime, the 24-year-old has performed the new track with an accompanying band from inside an edgy warehouse venue for The Kelly Clarkson Show.

Andrea, 63, told us: “I believe that Matteo is identifying with more and more clarity his own style, according to his own personality and sensibilities. And I believe that his very promising single Solo shows that. As for duets, it is true that the song Fall On Me was a beautiful occasion that we have seized upon as a family, perhaps without truly thinking it through but with great enthusiasm. And the public appreciated the genuineness of the emotions involved. But I also think that my son has, today, wings strong enough to take flight by himself.”

Hopefully, it won’t but much longer before Matteo announces the release date for his debut solo album.
