Martina Attili: “easier to sing emotions than talking about it”
Friends called her “Miss Revolution” to make fun of her goodbye. In response, she called her new album, to be released today, May 9th. “They called me that because I have always had a particular attention to social causes” – explains Martina Attili, Roman singer -songwriter born in 2001. “Last year the single” melancholy “came out and was the first after a long time. The release of ‘Miss revolution’ a year later marks the end of a cycle in some way”.
In search of stories to sing
A cycle that has seen, in fact, a sort of revolution. Not so much on a personal level even if “inevitably there has been”, but more one revolution of others and for others. On the disc, Martina tells what has happened in these years in which it has observed humanity, facing themes such as war and the relationship with God. Often often intimate issues that he tries to transform into music, making them within everyone’s reach.
“I can’t establish at the table what I will talk about in the songs, I take inspiration from what happens to the people around me. When I hear a story that strikes me particularly, I find it natural to put it in verse and I think it is easier to sing about emotions rather than talking about it. bullying”.
From Sanremo Area to X Factor
From there a path that she herself defines fluctuating and that passes from participation in the Sanremo area in 2017, in which she ranks among the 8 winners with the song you wrote “A nightmare every day”, to the twelfth edition of X Factor Italy in 2018, where she brings the unpublished “Cherophobia”, subsequently a gold disc in 2018 and Platinus in 2019. Up to the collaboration in Mr. Rain “La Somma”.
“In recent years I have acquired security, I have given myself a value and I fought to carry on my musical project, in which I have always believed a lot. Today I can say I am more indifference on certain aspects and more selfish on others. I like to sing and I want to do it regardless of everything and everyone”. Perhaps this is precisely his personal revolution, in which Martina has several cultural “weapons” available: from theater to television to writing. After the publication, in 2020, of the first novel “Baci bitter and author music” for the Longanesi publishing house, today is engaged in writing the second book, in which it investigates how a situation is experienced differently from the same group of people.
A journey through the stories
“Coming from the world of musical these languages for me have always been coherent artistic expressions that influence each other. I often write a story and then derive a song. ‘The release of the artists’, for example, song of the new album in collaboration with Pierdavide Carone, I wrote it following the musical that I staged last year”.
And speaking of limestone stages, the new album will be presented with two dates-event, on 12 May at the Detune in Milan and on May 15 at the magnetic field in Rome, which will anticipate a series of summer events. “It will be a sort of journey between different stories and I hope that the public can listen to and at the same time have fun and a sharing atmosphere is created”, concludes Martina, who despite having grown up and has acquired an artistic and personal maturity, remains the same “young lady revolution” as always.
