"Sacro because it contains so many very important tracks; because it’s a project that began four years ago with extensive research into the local dialect, folklore, and songs like "Baccalà", "La zia’ and "Stu cafè". Sacro because it tells the story of my family, which simply had to be included. Sacred because there’s a track I wrote with my sister, which, incidentally, I left in its raw form without even going into the studio to record it. Sacred because there’s also a jazz-inspired approach to music, blending genres in a slightly more international way. So for me it’s sacred because it’s given me a way to always feel like myself on stage, on tour, on the Sanremo stage"
