Rinaldi Sings is the stage name used by Steve Rinaldi, a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose orchestrated pop music prompted the New Musical Express to describe him in 2004 as a "cocksure 20th Century Scott Walker".
Originally from Haverhill, Suffolk, Steve Rinaldi was formerly a trombonist with cult indie mod band The Moment. After the demise of the group, Rinaldi continued to work with The Moment’s guitarist Adrian Holder in a succession of bands. He eventually wrote half of the material and briefly took over as the band’s vocalist before leaving to focus on Rinaldi Sings, his first solo project, produced in collaboration with music journalist Chris Hunt.
Going into the recording studio with Ian Shaw and Paul Bevoir, both former producers of The Moment, Rinaldi set out to make an album of orchestrated pop music, reminiscent of the late nineteen-sixties bubblegum soul of such artists as Love Affair and The Foundations.
