HEIDI FOR PRESIDENT + CANTINA CLUB + MARCO DI NUNNO Live | Extreme Music Academy

Heidi for President is dead. Long live Heidi for President. They return and make themselves heard. The writing becomes more intimate and close-up, with lyrics that feel like softly spoken thoughts, almost as if not to disturb, while beneath the rhythms they move, change shape, and accelerate. The indie folk of their origins becomes fractured and mixed, transitioning from post-rock to dance at times, with Britpop jumps, romantic and dreamy melodies that now breathe in another light, that of cold neon, empty streets, and midnight chatter.

The Cantina Club was born in Bari from the previous solo project of singer-songwriter Francesca Celiberto (vocals and keyboards), to which the trio made up of Ermanno De Pasquale (drums), Gianluca Colaianni (bass), and Domenico Novielli (trumpet) joined. The band focuses on writing original songs and arranging covers of well-known artists, following the common thread of a pop sound enriched by R&B and Jazz nuances. It all began two and a half years ago in Ermanno's basement, the meeting place for weekly rehearsals, from which the project's name is derived.

Marco Di Nunno, a singer and performer of National Musicals, began his first steps in music at a very young age, simultaneously approaching singing, studying piano and drums. He combines the study of music with theater, graduating in Musical Theatre from the historic SDM in Milan in Singing, Acting, and Dance. He has collaborated with some of the biggest names in Italian and foreign entertainment, such as Rosario Fiorello, Serena Autieri, I Neri per Caso with Mezzotono, Fabrizio Biggio, Pierfrancesco Favino, Beppe Fiorello, Sabrina Impacciatore, Riccardo Scamarcio, Garrison Larochelle, Fioretta Mari, Manlio Dovi’, Michele Placido, Anastasia Kuzmina, Cristian Ruiz, Fabrizio Voghera, Graziano Galatone, Enzo Campagnoli, Vincenzo Incenzo, and many others. As a current member of the group Mezzotono, he has performed in more than 50 countries across 4 continents, namely Canada, Africa, Europe, and China, participating in important festivals that have designated the project as one of the longest-lasting and historic a cappella music groups in Europe. As a solo singer, he participated in the television challenge of “Amici 16” with an original piece and in 2023 on Rai1 in the show hosted by Carlo Conti “The Band” with an original project “La Chiamata D’Emergenza.”
