Aldo Nova is best known internationally for the hit single "Fantasy", which propelled his debut album, "Aldo Nova" (1982),to double-platinum status in the U.S. "Monkey on Your Back" off "Subject" (1983) was a decent hit as well, but Aldo Nova retired as a solo artist after his third album "Twitch" (1985) sold a lot less than the previous did two except in — Sweden! He has since gained greater recognition as a professional composer, creating massive hits for artists like CÉLINE DION and CLAY AIKEN. Over the years, he has also released a few more solo albums, for instance the superb, guitar-oriented "Blood on the Bricks" (1991) where he wrote most of the songs together with Jon Bon Jovi. Apart from being a fantastic songwriter, he is also known for being a marvelous guitar player. His new album, "Too Much Sex", due for release in early 2010, finally brings him to Sweden and Sweden Rock Festival.
