Black Box

Black Box is an Italian house music group made up of DJ Daniele Davoli, classically trained clarinet teacher Valerio Semplici and electronic musician Mirko Limoni. The group was fronted by French fashion model Katrin Quinol on their cover art for the debut album Dreamland and as supposed lead singer in all their music videos. However, it was later revealed that Quinol was lip-syncing to the group's actual recorded vocalist Martha Wash, who sang the majority of the songs on "Dreamland". "Everybody Everybody" (July/August 1990) and "Strike it up" (May 1991) were #1 on both US and Canada Dance charts. "I don't know anybody else" was also a US Dance #1 for a week in February 1991.
