"Contatto" is the first album by Negramaro in four years, featuring a more stripped-down, intimate sound compared to their previous arena-rock productions. Recorded remotely during the COVID-19 pandemic, the album's production reflects the unique circumstances of its creation, with musicians contributing their parts from isolation.
- The album was largely recorded remotely during the COVID-19 lockdowns, with band members sending their parts to producer XXXX remotely.
- "Contatto" debuted at number one on the Italian FIMI album chart and was the best-selling album in Italy in the first week of its release.
- The album's lead single, "Basterà così," was released in September 2020 and quickly became a radio hit, previewing the album's more introspective mood.
Negramaro is an Italian pop-rock band formed in Puglia in the early 2000s. They are known for their stadium shows and for blending rock anthems with Italian melodic traditions. This album, "Contatto," arrived after a four-year hiatus, during which frontman Giuliano Sangiorgi pursued a solo career and the band members explored individual projects.
