Andrea Bocelli is known for being one of the most amazing singers alive today. What many don't know is that his son Matteo Bocelli is incredibly talented as well.
Many say that Matteo's voice sounds like a younger version of his father's, and they look alike too!
Both Andrea and Matteo are classically trained, and they have been able to become successful crossover artists. Matteo recently appeared on Andrea's single "Fall On Me" as they paid a touching tribute to each other in English and Italian.

Matteo's brother Amos Bocelli appeared on their father's latest single playing piano. Matteo and Amos were stunned and excited when Andrea announced that he was to record a duet with British singer Ed Sheeran, who is a huge superstar himself.
Ed flew to Tuscany to record the song "Perfect" with Andrea. Before he arrived, Andrea asked his sons about Ed's background to get more information on him.
"The strange thing was that he really, really wanted me to sing on that particular song, with an operatic touch to it - something that he didn't think was actually feasible," Andrea said. "But he was so determined that he came all the way to my house ... The situation was very peaceful because I had my two sons with me who are great fans of his. So they were very excited and very happy to be able to listen to his voice live. It is a privilege and quite emotional to listen to a singer who sings live for you. My sons were in awe."
