With a strong cultural depth in his lyrics and music, infused with a very personal ironic note, the Genoese Francesco Baccini returns to Verona for his new tour. He will be hosted on Friday, February 6, 2026, at 9:00 PM at the Teatro Alcione in the Borgo Venezia district.
Regarded as one of the most eclectic musicians of his generation, he boasts a career spanning over thirty years, from his debut album “Cartoons,” which was awarded as a revelation at Saint Vincent and won the prestigious Targa Tenco for best debut work in 1989, to a significant collaboration with Fabrizio De André on the duet "Genova blues" in his second album. A supporter of Genoa, he composed the anthem for his team in 1991.
The following year, he won the “Festivalbar” with the song “Sotto questo sole,” alongside Paolo Belli and the “Ladri di Biciclette,” marking the beginning of his career and numerous collaborations with other artists, including Jannacci and Branduardi. In 1993, he released another of his most famous songs, "Ho voglia d'innamorarmi." In 1996, he presented the song “Senza tù” at Sanremo and published his first anthology album.
In 2012, he achieved his second victory at the Targa Tenco with the album “Baccini canta Tenco.” After many years and 18 albums published, he released the new single "Matilde Lorenzi" in October 2025, dedicated to the young skier who died in an accident in Val Senales, paying tribute to her life and youth.
