Zanna Records founder shares his journey from arriving in America in 1998 with almost nothing to reaching millions of listeners worldwide — and the story behind hypnotic dance duo Luca and Claudette
SEDONA, Ariz. — Gianluca Zanna, founder and CEO of independent label Zanna Records, was featured on Monday, July 27, 2026, in the “Top Leaders” segment of The Morning Blend on KTNV Channel 13 Las Vegas, in an interview titled “Musician Shares Inspiring Journey from Humble Beginnings to Global Success.”
Speaking with the Las Vegas audience, Zanna traced a path that began when he arrived in the United States in 1998 with almost nothing, and has since grown into a genuinely global independent music career — with his catalog airing on hundreds of radio stations across dozens of countries and reaching millions of listeners online, all without major-label backing.
Zanna also shared the story behind his creative partnership with singer Claudette Lyons as the hypnotic dance duo Luca and Claudette, whose cinematic music videos and positive, subconscious-minded songwriting have built an international following from the red rocks of Sedona.
The conversation returned again and again to the qualities Zanna credits for every step of the climb: perseverance, passion, and determination.
“I came to this country with almost nothing but a dream and a suitcase full of songs,” Zanna said. “Everything that followed came from refusing to quit. If our story gives one person permission to chase their own dream, then the whole journey was worth it.”
The KTNV appearance continues a strong run of national television and press attention for Zanna Records and Luca and Claudette, following features on PIX11 New York, Fox News San Diego, and NBC Palm Springs, alongside coverage in Rolling Stone (US and UK), Forbes, Billboard Italia, Music Connection, and Entrepreneur UK.
