Irene Grandi, born in Florence in 1969, developed her musical talent in the Florentine and Tuscan scene, achieving success in 1994 with her participation in the Sanremo Festival. Her debut album, with songs co-written with Jovanotti and Eros Ramazzotti, cemented her position among Italian singer-songwriters. Her career is rich with collaborations with Italian artists such as Vasco Rossi and Pino Daniele, and international artists like Youssou N'Dour and Patti Smith. Grandi stands out for her versatility, working with Stefano Bollani, the Pastis, and Stewart Copeland. With the project "Io in Blues," she returns to her blues and soul roots, reinterpreting classics by artists like Etta James and Otis Redding, along with songs by Pino Daniele, Lucio Battisti, Mina, and her own, rearranged in a rock-blues style.
