It finally happened: Damiano David released solo music. «Måneskin are doing very well», say he and the other members, interviewed individually. «We will work on new material, nothing will change». But the attention today is practically all on him, who a few weeks ago began teasing his new project. And so here it is, Silverlinesthe first song that is the result of the collaboration with Labrinth. A ballad that doesn't sound at all like a Måneskin piece and in which you can practically only hear piano and organ. A song that Damiano tells Billboard US: «There is a level of vulnerability and honesty that I have never been able to reach, not because I wasn't honest in the other songs», he declared. “I had to dig deeper into myself.”
A new side that he had not yet shared «because he wanted to respect the strong identity of the band and the “role that had been assigned to it”». But a piece was missing. «At a certain point I started to suffer from this very partial point of view of myself. I was the one who just chose to express that.” “My brain and body rebelled and forced me to cut myself in two and show myself to the world.”

After attending the VMAs, where Vic De Angelis was also there and performed together with Halsey, Damiano is now ready for this new phase, and perhaps we could venture a parallel with other solo debuts. Of those you make songs to demonstrate there is also more than what you showed before. Taking it easy, do you remember when Harry Styles returned to the scene alone, without One Direction?
A choice that cannot fail to also pass through the outfits: Damiano abandoned the glittery onesies to get closer to a slightly italian gangsta complete with a mustache. And if on the one hand there is him with this new chapter, on the other Vic De Angelis who does DJ sets around the world and has just released a single with Anitta. The boys aim high.
