Lavinia Mancusi, singer and multi-instrumentalist (guitar, violin, frame drum), is one of the most intense and authentic voices on the contemporary Italian music scene. A leading interpreter of Italian popular traditions, Roman music and world music, she stands out for her magnetic stage presence and deeply expressive energy.
After numerous prestigious collaborations and collective projects, Lavinia Mancusi releases in 2024 her solo project, A cruda voz: a powerful and poetic album — a true sonic journey through emotions and roots — with which she is ready to captivate audiences across Europe and beyond.
