Roberta: I say this to everyone

Dico a tutti così (I say this to everyone) is a melancholy album.

Roberta Carrieri tells us her secrets as if reading pages from her diary, sometimes whispering, sometimes at the top of her voice.

Dico a tutti così wins over her shyness and speaks not only of herself but of imaginary stories and desired scenarios-desired so much as to cause loss of sleep.

At times hermetic, at times disarmingly explicit and sincere and at times ironic, Dico a tutti così is a collection of the most significant songs by this wandering singer-songwriter from Bari. Roberta sings of solitude and departure but also of loves that are difficult to explain, sometimes even Saffo-esque.

These are songs from the corner, found in the dusty nooks and crannies where we seek refuge after a long voyage, far from where we were born; from where there was the sea and the sunshine.

This album sounds like a declaration of love, but watch out, just like the title, Roberta Carrieri says this to everyone!

She leaves the listener, however, a sort of sweet illusion in which to melt; true and imagined at the same time, just like the stories she sings.
