LWhat worries you most about the Sanremo stage? «The Ariston staircase, I’ll do the rehearsals also because I’ll be wearing heels!». Words of Shari20 years old, artist who, thanks to his performance at Sanremo Youth 2022 with the song Whisper, will participate in the San Remo Festival with the song Selfish.
“I’m ready, the big paranoia has passed,” said Shari on her participation in the Festival. “Listening again to the tunes I had, Selfish it was the most complete. It might be the one, I told myself. Why the Festival? I want throw myself into new challenges to spread my music to as many people as possible».
And now that it’s very close to the beginning of the Festival, «I feel very good. I’m working a lot to prepare everything, I’m excited. But mostly I breathed a sigh of relief when I was chosen for Sanremo. And the best showcase to make my music heard».
In fact, you have always looked at Sanremo «with my parents. All music programs interest me, but with Sanremo stops the entire record market in function of this event for which it is impossible to ignore».
For her it means “a challenge and a great opportunity. I’ve been singing since I was little and I’ve always dreamed of treading that stage. I would like to talk about me bringing out the artist that I am moving me and making others move».
Confident, determined, albeit very young, Shari will go «to bring my music, the rest is not up to me. I’m full of unreleased songs, so you will hear many in the coming times. Even if I still don’t know how and when».

Selfishthe song that Shari brings to Sanremo
His song in the competition speaks of «di when I felt selfish. I think it can be reflected in my words, because we are all a bit selfish especially in love”. It is a piece «with gods dynamic contrastseven at the text level it’s elegant but there’s also a bit of anger. I’m fond of it because I wrote it in an intimate moment in which I no longer believed in myself and in the music I wrote».
Luckily, with this song «I started believing in myself againit’s a complete song, I think it rocks. Hope you like it”.

“My generation, fortunately, he no longer has certain mental patterns and I am very happy with it. I have many like-minded friends, as do many my age. And in Italy we are already at a good point along this path, so going forward with the years I hope it will get better and better».

Shari and the cover night with Salmo
In 2021 Shari collaborated with Salmo on her single The fallen angel. Furthermore, he is part of the list of artists of the label also founded by Salmo, the Lebowski 360°. So, it’s only natural that Shari chose right Psalm to accompany her on stage on the cover night with a Sugar medley.

Sometimes, he says, «they criticize me for the way I speak, for the low, somewhat masculine voice, but they tell me all the colors. But I don’t answer, I pass on».
In the meantime, the rehearsals of the evening «they went very well from the very first time, even with the applause of the orchestra. Then I made friends with manyincluding choristers. Zucchero is among my favorite artists with Mina for soulful sounds. There is always a female singer on stage with him and therefore it seemed natural to me to propose it on the cover night».
