The Profile

Francesco Tricarico is an Italian singer-songwriter from Milan, trained as a transverse flautist at the Conservatory. He broke through with Io sono Francesco, won the Critics’ Award at Sanremo 2008 with Vita tranquilla, and returned to Sanremo in 2009 with Il bosco delle fragole.

Studied transverse flute at the Conservatory; wrote La situazione non è buona for Adriano Celentano; performed Solo per te for Leonardo Pieraccioni’s 2005 film Ti amo in tutte le lingue del mondo; Sanremo 2008 Critics’ Award with Vita tranquilla; notable albums include Tricarico, Frescobaldo nel recinto, Giglio, and Il bosco delle fragole.

Reviews paint Tricarico as a fragile, authentic Milanese singer-songwriter with childlike yet profound lyrics and a distinctive, sometimes off-key delivery. His debut Tricarico is hailed; Frescobaldo nel recinto is seen as a half misstep; Giglio and Il bosco delle fragole mark a mature pop turn. Sanremo 2008 with Vita tranquilla won the Critics’ Award; 2009’s Il bosco delle fragole split opinions but confirmed his uniqueness.
