Né et élevé sur l'île de Malte, Carlo décrit son parcours musical comme un processus incessant, expressif et permettant une liberté d'interprétation. Il est connu pour son regard neuf sur le genre et son utilisation sans vergogne de l'improvisation, s'appropriant nettement les airs de ses compositions. Au cours des premières années de sa carrière, il s'est fait un nom grâce à des performances locales autour de l'île, puis a lentement commencé à collaborer avec des musiciens locaux et internationaux de renom.En 2013, il s'installe à Paris pour poursuivre ses études. Cette relocalisation lui a donné l'opportunité d'explorer la scène et d'apprendre des autres musiciens, à la fois en les écoutant et en collaborant avec eux. La scène parisienne a conduit à l'enregistrement de son premier album, « The Sound Catalogs », issu d'un projet collaboratif antérieur au Malta Jazz Festival 2012.Carlo a ensuite enregistré cinq albums sous son nom en tant que leader et apparaît également sur quatre autres en tant que sideman. Il a donné de nombreux concerts à travers l'Europe, notamment à Paris, Berlin, Francfort, Kyiv, Istanbul et Milan.Le trio interprétera une série d'arrangements qui rendent hommage à certaines des figures les plus influentes de la Black American Music. C'est aussi le thème du dernier album de Carlo, 'Diversity', enregistré à Paris en juillet 2021.
