Consuelo started out as a classical pianist in Milan where she was borne. Consequently, she graduated in Music Recording at Salford University.
In 2006 Consuelo recorded an acoustic EP "Bittersweet", which was reviewed on the Bournemouth Daily Echo in 2007 by Sarah Cartlidge, who wrote:
"Singer songwriter Consuelo with a collection of six, piano-led songs are anadorned and uncomplicated but commanding and touch on her classical background, as well as her love of pop and melodic rock, glossed with her strong Italian accent, which sounds particularly pronunced on tracks I Tond You That I Love You and Keep It 4 Yourself. Bittersweet makes for imaginative and atmospheric listening".

Artist Biography
Consuelo Scivoletto (most known as Connie) is a singer-songwriter and an ambitious freelance composer and musician.
She started out as a classical pianist playing regularly piano, percussion, and singing in the choir of a Milan-based orchestra, where she toured Italy and Germany representing the school with her talent.
Having always loved pop (ular) music, she joined the Sultans of Swing, a Dire Strait's tribute band and later formed the Take That tribute girl group The Sweetbeat. With the latter she joined Manchester boy band Take That in Monte Carlo on promotion where they had a one-off session filmed by Andy Peters for his programme The Ozone, which was featured in the Official Take That magazine.
Consuelo's determination to become an established musician/composer and her interests in production led her to move to Manchester where she graduated in Popular Music & Recording at Salford University, Greater Manchester, specialising in composition.
Originally influenced by 70's piano based rock band Supertramp, the darker melodies of The Doors, and film music, Consuelo has been drawing from a now much broader range of influences to create her own style. Since the early age of 14 she has been writing songs in various styles and moods.
However, Consuelo’s focus is now the realisation of her debut album as a singer-songwriter. She moved to Cornwallin Jan 06 to concentrate on this project, away from distractions, and has now finished recording her acoustic EP Bittersweet, a selections of 6 piano/ vocals & backing vocals tracks.

Connie's talent is emotive singing-songwriting that could transcend the bridge between Radio 2 and Classic FM. You can imagine the songs on her six-track EP, Bittersweet, getting the full widescreen production job with strings et al.

www.247mag.co.uk 's December review of my EP:
"From Milan to Manchester to Penzance, singer/songwriter CONSUELO Scivoletto has pursued her musical ambitions with admirable determination. The Bittersweet EP is her first endeavour into the public domain, showcasing six stark yet effective, piano-driven songs of melancholy and hope steeped in classical, folk and pop leanings. The likes of Keep It 4 Yourself reveal a rich, textured voice with echoes of female luminaries such as Liz Fraser, Dolores O'Riordan and Alanis Morissette, but it's Consuelo's strong Spanish (argh, got that wrong...i'm Italian!!) accent that lends a unique flavour and power to the songs. It seems as if all the hard work and travelling is paying off. Kudos to you." BB
