The Profile

Italian singer and actress from Naples. Born Barbara D'Alessandro, she emerged in 1983 via Renzo Arbore’s FF.SS., remembered for performing “Sud.” Active across cinema, theatre, and music, she’s known for a visceral, husky timbre and a Mediterranean blend of styles. Former partner of Eugenio Bennato and mother of two children. Albums include Napoli mediterranea and Pietra a metà (a tribute to Pino Daniele and Massimo Troisi).

Italian singer–actress from Naples; birth name Barbara D'Alessandro; active since 1983; appeared in Renzo Arbore’s film FF.SS.; former partner of Eugenio Bennato with two children; notable albums include Napoli mediterranea and Pietra a metà, the latter dedicated to Pino Daniele and Massimo Troisi.

Two DeBaser reviews paint a polarized picture: a scathing takedown of Napoli Mediterranea versus high praise for Pietra a metà, a tribute to Pino Daniele and Massimo Troisi. Both agree on a distinctive, visceral voice over a Mediterranean blend of folk/rock/chamber elements. Career touchpoints include Arbore’s FF.SS. and guidance/partnership with Eugenio Bennato.
