Federico Olivieri, aka Olly, born in 2001, is one of the semi-finalists of Sanremo Giovani, which will be broadcast on Rai 1 on 16 December, where he will present the song ‘L'anima Balla’. His style blends rap and pop, mixing melancholy and rhythm to win over a diverse audience. Having approached music as a child, he enrolled at the conservatory as a teenager with the dream of performing on big stages, a desire realised in 2019 at the Goa Boa Festival in Genoa, his hometown, where he will return in 2022 by opening Blanco's concert. After the first EP ‘Io sono’ in 2020, Olly collaborates with pop and rap artists such as Arisa. The year 2023 marked a great success with ‘Gira, il mondo gira’, his first gold-certified album, followed in 2024 by ‘Tutta Vita’, also a gold disc, consecrating Olly among the promises of Italian pop.
