Introspective, profound, socially aware, and frequently (self-importance)ironical at the sami metre, Italian singer/songwriter Cristina Donà naturalized herself as an creative individual with a impregnable personality -- and, in many shipway, an pilot unitary, besides, in ground of both music and lyrics.

Her debut criminal record album, Tregua (1997), was a well-crafted accumulation of songs, a perfect tense counterbalance between rock and twine electricity and acoustic nuances, with lyrics both intense and poetic. Considered by many as one of the most interesting Italian records of that yr, finally it would win the important Targa Tenco prize as the topper debut album. In 1998 Donà took constituent in The Different You: Robert Wyatt e Noi, a good word CD dedicated to the one time Soft Machine drummer, wHO would be the nigh important invitee on the next year's Nido (in the vocal "Goccia," later on released as a bingle), the platter that confirmed Donà's giving in devising ends such as painfulness, tension, making love, and henry Sweet meet and molding into earnest and touch ballads.


In 2000 Donà published the al-Qur'an Appena Sotto le Nuvole, a assemblage of poems and short stories, followed in 2003 by the move around log Divinity Less America, co-written with diary keeper Michele Monina. Meanwhile, in 2001 she played at the Wyatt-curated Meltdown Festival in Capital of the United Kingdom, where she met Cousteau's Davey Ray Moor, wHO would be the producer of 2003's Dove Sei Tu. Thanks as well to a remix of the single "Triathlon" by Subsonica, the felon record sold moderately well and well widened Donà's consultation. In 2004 she guested on Telepathy, the debut of Moor's fresh externalise, Stellar Ray, and released Cristina Donà, her start time saucer song dynasty in English, including the Dove Sei Tu songs translated with the avail of husband Davide Sapienza and Berth. Distributed in 33 countries by Rykodisc, the track record album received splendid reviews, the well-nigh important a four-star evaluation by Mojo. In 2005 the medicine magazine Il Mucchio Extra released a lively acoustic CD recorded in 2002 with Manuel Agnelli and Marco Parente. Having touched from Italian indie label Peyote to Virgin, in 2007 Donà released the more than polished La Quinta Stagione.
