ERIKA CECCHINI
Cosmopolitan, in heart and mind. Such is Erika Cecchini, extraordinary
new voice on the Italian rock scene, who writes and sings in English and
has just released her first album: In my bed. With a powerful voice
and the guts to refuse a "major" record contract to follow a
path closer to her artistic aspirations, Erika is a both a woman with
nerves of steel and a "pure" romantic. Of Roman origins, but
transplanted to Milan a year or so ago, she confesses that she'd like
to work one day with Nick Cave, the Australian maudit rocker adored
as well by Wim Wenders and PJ Harvey.
