Album Notes & Community Reviews

Co-written with Massimo Bubola, 'Rimini' introduces a strong American folk-rock aesthetic to the celebrated Italian cantautore's sound. The lyrical narratives shift away from historical allegories toward poignant, contemporary examinations of provincial life, youthful disillusionment, and societal contradictions.
