“...Italian singer and acoustic guitarist whose volatile songs signaled passion across the language barrier.” - Jon Pareles, The New York Times

The Sicilian-born Carmen Consoli is the most successful female singer-songwriter Italy has ever produced.  The 33 year-old musician is known for her unflinching emotional live performances of songs that examine broad themes of love, illness, solitude and friendship from a feminine -- and feminist -- perspective.  Her innovative mixture of Italian song with indie-rock influences, bossa nova rhythms and jazz and blues-inspired riffs have engendered a sound unique on the Italian music scene.
