Kano (band)

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Italian group Kano was originally founded in 1980 by Luciano Ninzatti, Stefano Pulga and Matteo Bonsanto and had a few minor disco hits, including I'm Ready . The front man was named Glen White , who comes from the Caribbean . Their hit It's a War made disco history in 1980, especially since this song was directed against the Third World War , which was then thought to be possible . With their keyboard-influenced dance floor sound, the band paved the way for the Italo-Disco wave that followed. In 1983 they had their biggest hit with Another Life . After the single This Is the Night from 1985, the group broke up. Her hit "Another Life" was covered in 2003 by the dance project Master Blaster .
