The 15-track follow-up to the debut album "Dark Room," titled "Double," will be published on September 29, 2023.
Mysterious as always, yet quietly hinting at what awaits the listener, the multi-talented artist provides us a glimpse into the album's inner world with this communiqué, "Double is an inner journey, in search of good and evil, that is inside me. Double defends fears, but it doesn't denounce them, it wants to make them a weapon for the benefit of the person."
The artist appears to find ideas and inspiration for his musical journey in unexpected places. Whether it's African voodoo dolls, as in "Puppet In Your Head," Korean movies and his own trip to Seoul, which influenced the track "To Do List," or "All I Want," a song he's dedicating to a child he met while visiting an earthquake camp in Turkey - but most of all, it's influenced by his personal life and the search for his own self.
Double brings out all of the guns that Italian ingenuity has to offer. The album Double makes the vocalist appear more personal and vulnerable than ever before, with issues like as emotions and feelings, courage, fear, longing, love, and desire.
