About Cristoforo, poeta e marinaio
BIOGRAPHY
Cristoforo (Cris) Nania born in Sicily 21st of March 1956.
A tough and lonely childhood, far from family connections and sentimental links; He came back to His country as a teenager, however, despite His wish to reunite with His roots and family meets a different truth eventually finding himself alone again.
At the age of 16 He decides to take the sails and start a new life. This led Him to have thousands of stories and experiences and even today He tries to challenge himself.
The lyrics that writes are a clear “feeling” and reference to those experiences, often focus on the pain, the momentary joy,all things present in the human soul, never to be cause of despair but to explode in a mood of positive fighting to develop, to grow and hope.
He's singing style comes from old school Italian songwriters, however never stopped to mix music styles as blues, rock, country, funky arriving to touch some hint of manush (gitan swing).
He love life and His hugely attracted from the female universe, so different and elaborated compare to the male one, His lyrics are in fact inspired by those themes along with the roots, colours and culture of Sicily.
This music adventure led him to record 2 entire CD, the 1st called “..del mare, del sogno, dell’amore..” and the 2nd “ essenziale” working now on a 3rd one.
His strength is not only His music creativity and communication skills through interviews and radios but also His live performances that brought a discrete success and spreading of His music around Italy, where he won several music prizes but also abroad, like in Beijing China, where He grew many followers.
