In 1974 he founded his band, the Treves Blues Band, and began his passionate and incessant commitment to the dissemination of the blues, becoming the point of reference of the national blues scene.
Treves, nicknamed the Puma of Lambrate, participates in the most important festivals and musical events throughout Italy.
