ABBALLATI
SINGLE - OUT NOW
This single is an invitation to dance. I urge all women to emancipation and freedom. For me it's a fusion rock anthem inspired by liberating ritual dances. Abballati means Let's dance!
FIGGHIA MIA
SINGLE - OUT NOW
This single is a rock lullaby. It transports us in a dreamlike and cinematic universe and touches the intimate. It's a tribute to all mothers, in times of peace as in times of war...
CANZUNA
NEW MUSIC VIDEO OUT NOW
It’s a very personal love song, a timeless ballad. The lyrics I sing were born at night, I was alone on the shore of a lake: "My love you are far away but soon with me."
