I write songs in many different genres and promote my country songs under the alias of Mountain Rio. All Mountain Rio songs are recorded in Nashville by producer Stacy Hogan and feature the wonderful vocals of Mike Lusk.Mountain Rio videos – https://wp.me/P7vD8Q-1MOther aliases I release my songs under are Athenos, The Amazing Doctor Love, Tinsel, Mixed Bag, The Snowmen and Franchesco De Rosa and most recently Afro Neat Ft J Nana.

All of my country

songs are released on my own Mountain Rio label and are available to dfownload from Spotify and other major download stores.

In December 2019 Rockabilly Christmas featuring Mountain Rio reached number 2 in the digitaldjpool.com record pool pop chart and Christmas Festa featuring Franchesco De Rosa reached number 4 in the dance chart.An impressive achievement as digitaldjpool.com is considered one of the best record pools in the world. 

I have had a number of chart entries in The Official European Independent Music Chart, which is based on the amount of air play received by a song.The highest position reached to date was in December 2015 when ‘Babes’, a pop/dance track, featuring The Amazing Doctor Love, reached number two.
In July 2016 ‘Lazing In The Summer Sun’ featuring Athenos reached number 7.

In November 2020 the following singles were re-released for Christmas:

Rockabilly Christmas – Mountain Rio    

This was played by more than 40 Country stations in the US and was estimated by the promoters to have reached number 60 in the

unofficial country chart.

Christmas Festa – Franchesco De Rosa – EDM, reached number 14 in the World Independent Chart 2020.
