Following the overwhelming success of the theatrical tour Franciscus and the acclaim received at the Sanremo Music Festival 2025 with Quando sarai piccola — which earned him the Premio Bigazzi for Best Composition and the Premio Sala Stampa Lucio Dalla — Simone Cristicchi returns to captivate audiences with his new live project:
From Darkness to Light – Summer Tour 2025.

A concert that defies definition — elegant and surprising — celebrating the eclecticism of an artist who inhabits music, poetry, and theatre with extraordinary naturalness.

On stage, Cristicchi reveals himself in his full essence: singer-actor, poet of the spoken word, and sensitive interpreter, moving seamlessly across different registers with the mastery that has made him a unique figure in the Italian artistic landscape.

The performance unfolds as a journey through the most significant milestones of his career: from his debut Fabbricante di canzoni, which established his talent, to the thematic depths of his latest concept album Dalle tenebre alla luce. A musical narrative where irony and melancholy, lightness and introspection alternate, guiding the audience through an intense and authentic emotional experience.

Enhancing the evening is the collaboration with the Gnu Quartet, an ensemble known for its refined and unpredictable sound. Together with Cristicchi’s longtime band, they create a distinctive stylistic signature — a meeting point between the delicacy of chamber music and the energy of singer-songwriter rock, balancing elegance and experimentation.

Through poetry, sound, and storytelling, Cristicchi Live 2025 promises an unmissable opportunity to witness the magic of an artist who transforms each concert into a profound and immersive experience, giving voice to the beauty of emotion and the depth of the stories that shape us.
