Early life and education

Born in 2000 in Brindisi, in the Salento region of Apulia, to Enrica, a teacher and dancer, and Vincenzo Carella, a biologist,[1] they began playing guitar at the age of three.[2][3] At fourteen they played in their middle school orchestra,[4] and began composing their first songs.[5][6]

Career

In 2021 Senza Cri released their first official single "Tu sai"[7] and took part in the Area Sanremo singing competition with the song "A me",[8] being then selected for Sanremo Giovani.[9][10] On 15 December they participated in the final of Sanremo Giovani, failing to access the Sanremo Music Festival 2022.[11][12] On 3 December 2021, the single "Amor 25 novembre" was released, dedicated to the victims of femicide.[13]

On 14 January 2022 the single "Bordi" was released,[14] which anticipated the release of the debut EP Salto nel vuoto,[15] containing seven tracks and published on 18 January by the UtoPublishing label.[16][17] The single "Amarsi un po'" was released on 25 February. They later also participated in the Porto Rubino event.[18] The single "Non ti sopporto più" was released on 19 May 2023.[19][20]

In September 2024, they joined the cast of the twenty-fourth edition of Canale 5's musical talent show Amici di Maria De Filippi,[21] entering the initial phase.[22][23] In March 2025, they entered the series phase of the show by joining the team led by coaches Lorella Cuccarini[24] and Emanuel Lo,[25] being eliminated during the fifth episode on 19 April.[26]

During the show, they released several new songs, including "Madrid",[27] "Tutto l'odio"[28] and "Grande muraglia",[29] followed by the single "Tokyo Nite",[30] all four of which were later included in their second EP, Tokyo Nite, released on 30 May 2025 by ADA and Warner Music Italy, which also includes the songs "Harakiri" and "20xsempre".[31][32] The EP debuted at number eighty-seven on the FIMI Albums Chart.[33] Their new single "Anno del drago" was released on 19 September.[34]

In October 2025, they were chosen to compete in Sanremo Giovani 2025,[35] the youth selection for the Sanremo Music Festival 2026, with the song "Spiagge".[36][37] After making it through the first round[38] and the semifinal,[39] they reached the final where they were eliminated.[40][41]

Personal life

Senza Cri is openly non-binary and prefers to use they/them pronouns.[21] In 2025 they started dating singer Antonia Nocca, whom they met during their participation on the twenty-fourth edition of Amici di Maria De Filippi.[42][43] Coincidentally, Nocca also entered Sanremo Giovani 2025 going on to reach the final like Carella.[44][39]
