Cape St Vincent

Valeria Pozzo's second single Rollercoaster is a warm call to reconciliation between sisters. Folk acoustic guitar strumming, meandering vocal melodies and jazz clarinet exudes fragility and vulnerability whilst a soft and insistent pulse evokes a feeling of determination and resolution. In each verse, new layers gradually unveil feelings of intimacy and forgiveness. With calm piano lines and bright cymbal swells, this is a medium energy song to shine hope on challenging moments in a sentimental relationship.

The Promise

Singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Valeria Pozzo began playing violin at a very young age. After spending many years developing as classical musician in her native Italy, Valeria moved to London to pursue music full time. Inspired by the energy and pulse of London, Valeria began writing her own music and developing her voice as a singer-songwriter. 

Over the years, Valeria’s boundless musical curiosity led her to perform with artists spanning a spectrum of styles such as Jazz Jamaica All Stars, ESKA, Sam Ryder, Neil Cowley, Antonio Forcione, Robert Mitchell, Rhys Lewis and the NU Civilisation Orchestra.  
Valeria has performed at some of the most prestigious halls and venues in Italy and the UK and has sung at world renowned Abbey Road Studio, where she recorded a cover of George Harrison’s ‘Here Comes The Sun’ for Peroni Nastro Azzurro. 

Valeria’s classical background along with her extensive collaborations with these artists seem to perfectly collide and synthesise in her own work. Valeria’s music is not easily pinned down, but rather hovers around pop/folk, indie and jazz. Much of Valeria’s writing is directly inspired by her own personal experience, with themes of family, relationships, and distance explored with a deft touch and a heartrending wisdom. 

Her debut single ‘My Heart’ was written, recorded and produced by Valeria during lockdown at her home in London. 
Valeria Pozzo is currently self-producing her forthcoming EP, which will be released in February 2023.
