Milan, Italy - July 1, 2023 - Bergamo-based indie-pop project, Alaska Blue, is set to embark on their highly anticipated first European tour, captivating audiences with their heartfelt melodies and soulful lyrics. Comprising Elisabetta Giordano on lead vocals and piano, Davide Casi on guitar, Marcello Norrito on drums, and Gabriele Valsecchi on bass, Alaska Blue has captured the hearts of fans with their enchanting music.

Alaska Blue's musical journey began in the winter of 2018 when singer-songwriter Elisabetta and guitarist Davide fortuitously crossed paths during a piano class. United by their shared love for music and wanderlust, they soon began captivating audiences as street artists during the summer of the same year. In 2019, their musical partnership blossomed into the acoustic duo known as Alaska Blue, and they released their debut single, 'Outsider', the following year.

A pivotal moment arrived in 2022 when Alaska Blue unleashed their first album, 'Under the Weather.' This enchanting collection features eight sweet and elusive songs characterized by mellow atmospheres, acoustic nuances, soulful vocals, and captivating melodies. The mesmerizing fourth track, 'Blue Shelter', showcases a refined and experimental sound, largely influenced by musician and close friend, Francesco Roncalli, who produced the song.

Drawing inspiration from Elisabetta's involvement in a hometown gospel choir, Alaska Blue's music showcases a distinctly dense and emotional vocal style, contributing to the soulful essence of their compositions. Their introspective lyrics delve into individual fears and struggles within societal frameworks, providing a keen exploration of the human condition.

To further enrich their sound, drummer Marcello Norrito and bass player, as well as opera singer, Gabriele Valsecchi, joined Alaska Blue in 2022, transforming the duo into a full-fledged band. This collaboration infused their music with a groovy touch and a richer, more vibrant sound.

Alaska Blue's unique blend of influences, including Celeste, Nick Drake, Fabrizio de Andrè, Pink Floyd, Joao Gilberto, Norah Jones, and Kings of Convenience, culminates in a captivating and resonant sound that resonates with audiences.

Alaska Blue's upcoming European tour promises to captivate audiences through a series of intimate and enchanting performances. The journey commences on June 1st in Seriate, Bergamo, Italy, with the band's captivating presence also gracing various locations in Northern Italy, including a special performance with Sofar Sounds in Brescia.
