Formed in 1989 in Florence by Rossano Gentile and Stefano Di Donato with vocalist Simona Bencini, Dirotta su Cuba built a funky, jazz-inflected pop sound and reached mainstream attention with the 1997 Sanremo single "È andata così". Reviews praise musicianship and vocal harmonies while noting limited stylistic renewal.

Founded in 1989; original members include Rossano Gentile, Stefano Di Donato and Simona Bencini; participated in Sanremo 1997 with "È andata così"; repertoire blends funk, jazz and pop; later lineup changes included a new singer, Marquica (mentioned in reviews).

Italian funk/jazz/pop group formed in 1989, noted for the Sanremo 1997 single "È andata così". Reviews praise musicianship and vocals but criticise limited stylistic renewal. Coverage is nostalgic with balanced critique.

For:Fans of 1990s Italian pop, funk- and jazz-influenced music, and readers interested in Sanremo-era acts.

 The characteristic of the group is a musical style based on funky atmospheres and Jazz influences, obviously infused with pop, not to stray too far from mainstream tastes.

 For me, 1997 wasn't just the year of Sanremo: it was also an important year personally.
