Pinnella has been compared to vocal superstars Josh Groban and Michael Buble, but there is no doubt about the fact that Pinnella has a style that is completely his own. Every time he takes the stage he proves that he’s one of the strongest forces in the classical crossover realm. His strikingly rich baritone and stage charisma is unmatched.
