In a radio program of the UNED (National University of Distance Education) stated that cantantessa, as is known in her country, has a unique style that brings into focus the energy of rock, pop harmony and depth of the best singer-songwriters.

Carmen Consoli (Catania, 1974) began playing guitar at thirteen and says that since then, music has been his life.

In a long tour of Europe and the United States reunited with Sicily.

He said that his mind was all the time on the island and on his return, he felt the need to delve into their roots.

That inner journey to the traditions, language and musical instruments from his homeland was reflected in the ten songs of Eva from Eva.

This was with Goran Bregovic and Angelique Kidjo: Sicily is about Africa, we breathe the same flavors, said in El Pais.

Earlier, the singer, who admires Janis Joplin and Billie Holiday, was released five albums, over a million copies sold, alternative pop, while trade with Anglo-Saxon influences, from PJ Harvey, who have compared often, to Nirvana.

Approaching forty, and turned into cult artist in Italy, Carmen Consoli would have inherited the taste for music from his father, an amateur guitarist blues and black music.

With his first band Moon Dog ¿s Party, was engaged in successful version of Otis Redding, Aretha Franklin or Tina Turner.

And from the first album under his name in 1996, Due parole, until the most recent, Elettra, 2009, Consoli has seeded Italian music titles such as Amore di plastica, e felice Confused, Parole di burro, L'ultimo Unfurnished, molto lontano da qui Non or a Cartolina Mandaci.

As told to Paul Gil, for The World, a few years ago my songs move between a volcano and the sea: sometimes scream and make noises, other is quiet and romantic and nice harmonies.

Gil wrote then that his voice has accompanied a generation of young Italians who found in his lyrics echo his own anxieties, the typical crossroads of transition from adolescence to the adult world.

And what he said Carmen Consoli remains valid: For me it is important to recognize that far, you can not sing songs forever young.

When I was twenty my stories were in rebellion and transgression, now I try to be a woman of thirty.

I live my age, not pretend otherwise.
