Negramaro are an Italian band. Their name comes from Negroamaro, a wine produced in their native district Salento (the ‘heel’ of the Italian ‘boot’). They’re one of the most popular bands of their country, but the fact they sing in Italian hasn’t helped them gain success abroad. Musically however, their songs are very catchy.

In 2020, Negramaro released their eighth album Contatto. On streaming services, a bonus track has now been added to it. This tune, Ora Ti Canto Il Mare, is the band’s new single. A danceable song, ready to embrace (or even evoke) the Indian summer. It recounts front man Giuliano Sangiori’s passion for the sea, which has always been a source of inspiration for him. In his own words: “When I look at the sea, I always get a feeling of peace, life and the future.”
