She casts the hippodrome stages as a test of gender barriers in Italian live music.

Overview

  • The singer announced two summer shows: July 2 at Rome’s Ippodromo delle Capannelle for Rock in Roma and September 9 at Milan’s Ippodromo Snai San Siro for the Milano Summer Festival.
  • Her October single Brutta storia returned her to the top of EarOne radio airplay and continues to receive heavy rotation, while 2013’s L’amore non mi basta is trending on TikTok.
  • She is developing a new album planned for 2026 and emphasizes a deliberate release pace, working closely with collaborators Olly, Juli and Paolo Antonacci.
