Milan, 22 October 2025 – Apulian singer-songwriter Rosita Brucoli, 26, is garnering attention with her latest single, “Let’s Leave dad,” a deeply personal track addressing mistreatment and difficulties within her family. Brucoli’s music serves as both catharsis and a raw exploration of challenging experiences.
“It has always been an alternative way of communicating to speech-a sort of enhanced word,” Brucoli explained, describing music’s role in her life.”I started writing songs out of a desire for expression. Songs have always had a therapeutic role; I started writing to let off steam. And then I saw that I was able to express myself better.”
Brucoli’s songwriting confronts painful themes head-on.”My way of telling stories is very raw,” she said. “At the beginning I had moments of hesitation. It’s not easy to decide to expose such personal stories to the public. I realy like psychotherapy and I’ve been using it for personal reasons for years: it gives you tools to understand yourself in even crude ways. I’m looking for a way to get the truth at any cost.”
Reflecting on her upbringing, Brucoli admitted to past fears. “The moment you grow up in a dysfunctional model, every day you build your own model. There are days in which I think that I won’t be able to have a life different from the one my parents had, but also others, and there are more and more, in which I feel that I am managing not to forget but to metabolise.”
Central to Brucoli’s journey is ongoing therapy, which she describes as essential.”It wasn’t so much a choice.I had to go there in a hurry, in my adolescence I lived very hard. Then I discovered many things about myself and now I go there even if I no longer have an urgent need. It’s a bit as if therapy were like the gym, a moment that each of us takes for ourselves.”
Brucoli cites a diverse range of musical influences, favoring lyricism over vocal display.”I like listening to artists who use words a lot and little vocality, that is, singer-songwriters: Battisti disarms me with his spontaneity in expressing concepts that have a certain weight. Then Niccoló Fabi and Caparezza. I also like Calcutta a lot.To get chills: Mina and also many international things.”
Ultimately, Brucoli hopes her music will resonate with listeners. “I would like to have an increasingly larger audience and with my music make people feel better, make them feel less alone. I would like those who listen to me to recognize themselves in my songs. to feel the way I felt listening to my favorite artists.”
