International Nights at Rivian Park

Daniela Pes, hailing from the heart of Gallura and born in 1992, is making a distinctive mark on the Italian music scene. Her 2023 triumph at the Targa Tenco for Best Debut Work with "Spira," released on April 14th by Tanca Records, showcases her as an artist unbound by genre constraints. Daniela Pes engages with music as a singer, instrumentalist, and electronic explorer, revealing a versatile talent. Her unconventional journey includes a jazz vocals degree from the Conservatorio di Sassari and participation in Paolo Fresu's Nuoro Jazz Summer Seminars, leading to performances at Time in Jazz and the Harp Festival in Rio de Janeiro. Adding depth to her story are the accolades, including the prestigious 2017 Andrea Parodi award (celebrating critical acclaim, international jury recognition, best music, and outstanding arrangement) and the 2018 Musicultura awards for best music and Nuovoimaie. Supported by the Emilia-Romagna Music Commission.
