Vincent Gallo (born April 11, 1961) is an American actor, director, writer, producer, musician, and model.

He has won several accolades, including a Volpi Cup for Best Actor, and has been nominated for numerous more,

including the Palme d'Or, the Golden Lion, and the Bronze Horse.
Following a childhood working for the local mafia, Gallo started his professional career as a Formula II motorcycle racer.

In the early '70s he began playing electric bass and sang in garage bands,

during which time he developed an appreciation of both prog rock and proto-punk bands.
He participated in Buffalo-based bands like Blue Mood, a progressive rock cover band named Zephyr 

which did one performance at Lincoln Park Tonawanda New York in 1978,

The Good (with Bernie Kugel and Larry Galanowitz), The Detours, and the Plastics.
At the age of 16 Gallo relocated to New York City and in winter of 1979 he met Wayne Richard Clifford.

That same evening they rented a rehearsal space to improvise music together.
Wayne already a member of a industrial/noise group called Gray

asked Vincent to join the band that also featured renowned artist Jean Michel Basquiat.
Although they played regularly at such N.Y.C. hot spots as Max's Kansas City, CBGB's, Hurrahs, and the Mudd Club,

the group split up before any recordings could be made.
A short period afterwards Vincent Gallo and Wayne Richard Clifford along with Claudia Porcelli formed Bohack.
Immediately after forming Bohack the trio played one live improvised show.
After this single performance Bohack began recording

in Vincent Gallo's American Indian Studios in 1980 and continued to do so until the spring of 1981.
Gallo produced Bohack on a single track monophonic Ampex 350 recorder and a single RCA KU-3 microphone.
The album was mixed by Gallo on an ALTEC 250 SU mixer he also formed the label Family Friend Records to release it.
About 1000 copies were printed and the band sold 60 of them through Bleecker Bob's record store

and another 150 through a distributer while 500 were destroyed in a New York City fire.
In 1984 Gallo threw about 100 of them in a trash container and passed out the rest one night on St. Mark's Place, NYC.
When Bohack disbanded, Gallo turned his back on a musical career, and focused primarily on acting in movies,

landing steady work as either an actor, director, or composer.
As a filmmaker, he directed, wrote, and starred in three independent films:

"Buffalo '66" (1998), "The Brown Bunny" (2003), and "Promises Written In Water" (2010)

while also directed and starred in numerous short films and several music videos.
After including several of his own original compositions on 1998's "Buffalo '66" soundtrack,

Gallo decided to give a musical career another shot, forming the group Bunny with actor/musician Lukas Haas.

Despite a successful Japanese tour and a debut album completed for Sony

(with renowned Yes producer Eddie Offord overseeing the recording),

the group split up, resulting in the shelving of the debut's release.

After relocating to Los Angeles, Gallo began laying down solo demos at his home recording studio, 

which attracted the attention of Warp Records.
The early 21st century saw the release of such critically acclaimed solo Gallo full-lengths

as 2001's "When" and 2002's "Recordings Of Music For Film".
Gallo's films possess a cult following, especially in Japan and his work has proven largely polarizing among film critics,

but has been highly praised by many filmmakers and actors.
