Valerie Dore is one of the most popular and richest Singer who was born on May 28, 1963 in Milan, Italy. Valerie Dore, stage name of Monica Stucchi (born May 28, 1963 in Milan), is an Italo disco artist.
In 1986, Dore and her collaborators parted ways due to personal and artistic differences. Dore began working with new production team at Castello di Carimate on her second album, The Legend. Marco Tansini provided the music, Simona Zanini provided lyrics and background vocals and Stucchi recorded lead vocals.
In 1992, the ZYX label released Dore’s The Best of Valerie Dore with bonus tracks: the extended versions of her dance hits “The Night”, “Get Closer” and “It’s So Easy,” plus two remixes of “The Night” done by DJ Oliver Momm. In 1995, Zavagli and Dore moved to Arezzo, Toscana, where Dore took a break from music to start working as a restorer. At the same time, they opened a gallery store in Milan.
In November 2006, Dore recorded a new song “How do I get to Mars?” and launched her personal web site www.valeriedore.it (Italian). In 2007, she promoted non-smoking, on “Radio 24”. She had been smoking for 15 years, and it was affecting her voice and shortening her career. She wanted to inspire others to stop smoking as well, and, through radio and in an internet forum, she encouraged abstinence. In 2007 she recorded more material in her home studio, eventually released in the 2014 album Greatest Hits & Remixes. She is preparing new publications.
In 1986, Dore was voted the 6th best female artist in Italy by readers of TV Sorrisi e Canzoni. The following year, she moved to London to record the single “Wrong Direction” in collaboration with her future husband, Mauro Zavagli, for their new disco label “MZM PRODUCTION” (MauroZavagliMonica Production). She worked in a studio with German producer Ralph Ruppert and collaborated with musicians Nick Beggs from Kajagoogoo and Marck Price. The underpromoted record hit #23 in the Italian charts.

Monica Stucchi was born in Milan, Italy. Prior to her career in music, she worked as graphic designer. In the early 1980s she started singing in The Watermelon String Band, a bluegrass band led by Bruno Guaitamacchi that played in Milan pubs.
Stucchi was discovered at age 20 by the Italo producer Roberto Gasparini, who decided to give her the name Valerie Dore to improve her international appeal. Dore’s first single, “The Night” (1984) produced and arranged by Lino Nicolosi, was an Italo disco ballad written by Giuseppe Nicolosi and Barbara Lynn Addoms. The production team, however, was unsure of Stucchi’s vocal abilities, and decided to use Dora Carofiglio (singer of the band Novecento) instead. Slight variations on this professional arrangement continued for the next two singles, “Get Closer” and “It’s So Easy”, released in 1984 and 1985, respectively. During this time, the Italian music news publication TV Sorrisi e Canzoni (“Smiles and Songs”) awarded Dore the prize of best new artist of year. She also finished second at the Festivalbar music showcase and performed on the TV show “Azzurro” and on German TV.
Between 1990 and 1991, Dore and her husband were in Madagascar where they began a casual collaboration with a local group, an aspiration that Dore long had. She considered recording a new LP in a Caribbean style, but after some contact with international labels companies, she came to believe that such a record would be too different from her previous work and the rest of Italian dance music and dropped the project.
