LAVINIA MANCUSI

FOLK – POPULAR MUSIC / Italy

The new, fiery voice of popular traditional Italian music.

One of the most powerful voices of the new generation of Transalpine musicians, Lavinia Mancusi brings her strong personality to bear in her interpretations of traditional Italian folk and her beautiful forays into world music. Winner of numerous awards since 2019, this young Roman singer and multi-instrumentalist has enjoyed a string of prestigious collaborations with Lucilla Galeazzi, Eugenio Bennato and Daniele Sepe, and has recently released a third album brimming with emotion. But it is on stage, her favourite playground, that she takes on a transcendental dimension, carried by her magnetic stage presence, contagious energy and spectacular showmanship..
