After a beguiling fusion of fashion, soul and spirituality in her sophomore single, Francesca Pichierri has advanced into an alt-pop Avant-Gardist together with her third single, Io Sto Bene. The infectiously obscure piano-driven earworm inches cabaret pop additional into the mainstream with the playful panache in Pichierri’s vocals bringing equal quantities of vitality because the upbeat staccato piano notes earlier than the mid-way mark hits and sinks the listener right into a kaleidoscope of baroque pop experimentalism.
Io Sto Bene pulls you right into a rabbit gap of psychological disquietness, efficaciously depicting the way it feels to try to discover stability whereas every little thing in your exterior and inside world feels off-kilter. Like a rush of acceptance, the outro is a luminous visualisation of ephemeral transcendence away from the tumult of turmoil.
The unbiased singer-songwriter penned Io Sto Bene impressed by a bitter-sweet reminiscence of her mom waking up from her first ovarian most cancers remedy to reassure the household that ‘every little thing is okay’, and the epiphany of how paradoxical it’s to be decided to seem advantageous within the midst of chaos. That is a lot greater than artwork imitating life; the one is a painful prism of the absurdity of actuality.
Io Sto Bene was formally launched on November 29th; stream the one on Spotify now.
