Italian HIT Week at The Bandshell
October 14, 2023 @ 8:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Italian HIT Week 2023 presents the indie pop duo Coma Cose, alt-folk poet Gio Evan, and national contest winner Kyotolp for a FREE showcase of the freshest new music from Italy. San Remo contest winners, big Eurovision energy, and a musical tradition that builds on the glam and theatrics of opera. HIT Week is a unique platform that introduces new music from Italy to US audiences. Coma Cose, a duo from Milan, is one of Italy’s most popular new groups today. Fausto and California launched their international career with an opening spot for French group Phoenix in 2018, and haven’t stopped since. This show is their US debut. Gio Evan is an Italian writer-poet-singer-songwriter originally from Puglia – and also likes to add to the hyphenate the role of philosopher and humorist. He was featured at the prestigious San Remo Festival in 2021. His beautiful songs strike a chord with indie music fans in and out of Italy. The show rounds out with the introduction of electronic artist Kyotolp, who was chosen by an industry panel from Italian music platform Rockol.it from hundreds of applicants. Italy is always a good idea. HIT Week is produced each year in Miami since 2010 by Rhythm Foundation and Mela Inc, with support from the Italian Trade Commission and in partnership with the Consulate General of Italy in Miami and FIU Italian Club.
