interview
Felloni
Il punto di non ritorno is the
debut album as a songwriter for
Felloni. The album contains the
contamination between the Italian
songwriter school and the folk/

That empty armchair represents
for me the place where the album
came to life, the place where I con-

starting point, the place where you
do not return.
“Il punto di non ritorno” is your

his own experience, in
my case I found in this
album and especially in
writing the best way to
do it. Without a doubt
the major inspiration that
contributed to the re-
alization of the songs
were my inner storms;
The sleepless nights whe- re the
words plastered the walls of my
mind to go out and take shape in

do with your life. A work of intro-
spection in search of a way out of
the shadow of myself. In my songs
I speak of the feelings that every
human being has to face every day
of his life, feelings that can unite as
much as they share.
