LUCA BARBAROSSA

Saturday 9th August 9.30pm - €25

Alone on stage with his guitars,
Luca Barbarossa tells his story: his beginnings, his encounters, the songs that made him famous, and those dear to his heart.

The Roman artist's solo show thrives on the most intimate and direct relationship with the audience and the intimate spaces that welcome him: Friendly, ironic, and self-deprecating, Luca reveals stories and anecdotes from his artistic career behind the scenes, inevitably interwoven with personal and current events. Over forty years on stage, sixteen years as a presenter of Radio 2 Social Club, and thirteen released albums form a vast artistic and emotional background from which Luca draws with elegance and ease.

His songs are an integral part of this story, reinterpreted with voice and guitar, "naked" and essential, just as they were when he played them on the sidewalks of half of Europe in his early twenties.
