Luca Carboni

Luca cArboni
REFLECTIVE
Luca Carboni brings to the stage a powerful narrative woven from music, words and images, retracing the songs of his long artistic journey and alternating moments of joyful celebration with others of acoustic intimacy.
Known since his early years for the intimate and reflective nature of his lyrics, he entered the music scene in 1976 as a guitarist and composer, later launching his solo career in 1983.
For more than 40 years, his songs have explored deep emotions and social themes, captivating generations of fans. From the success of the album Carboni (1991) to iconic tracks such as Mare, mare, Carboni now experiences the stage with a renewed perspective: after overcoming illness, every performance is a moment to be savoured to the fullest.

TANKUS
OVERWHELMING
For over a decade, London-based Tankus (formerly Tankus the Henge), a unique and unconventional band, have been shaking up the European alternative music scene. They have set clubs and festivals ablaze—with memorable appearances at Glastonbury Festival and Trans Musicales—building a truly loyal fanbase over time. And they’ve done it all without a label, without a manager, in total independence.
Renowned for their overwhelmingly energetic live shows, Tankus transform every performance into a wild party—somewhere between street music, theater, and a rock 'n' roll revival—where the audience becomes just as much a protagonist as the band themselves.
Today, they open a new chapter in their story. They have signed with 5dB Records, an independent British label with whom they released their fourth album, Valley of Distraction, on October 31st. The record was produced by the legendary Jim Sclavunos (Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds, Grinderman).
PIAZZA ROMA
The heart of the festival
The expansive Piazza Roma provides the backdrop for the impressive Military Academy, the former Palazzo Ducale. During the days of the duchy, major political decisions were made here, and official celebrations and performances were held to properly welcome kings and popes. Today, the piazza forms the heart of the Jazz Open, hosting performances by world-class stars.
