Roaman

Roaman (alias Riccardo Vitalone) is a singer-songwriter, artivist and storyteller from Italy weaving uplifting melodies and heart-opening lyricism to amplify joy, hope and truth. His music is a doorway to the heart, a balm for the troubled mind, a soulful testament to the power of music to shake, heal and uplift.

Drawing inspiration from a rich tapestry of folk, reggae, gospel, hip hop, and medicine music, Roaman blends irresistible rhythms, unforgettable melodies, and exceptionally powerful lyrics to craft anthems of joy, (inner)freedom and resilience that feel like both a celebration and a meditation.

From street-performing in Camden Town (London, UK) to electrifying audiences at festivals around the world alongside artists like Mose, Sam Garrett, Ajeet, Nessi Gomes, Peia, Aware and Facesoul, Roaman’s journey has been one of steady, organic growth, one that has taken the “roaming roman” to perform on stages of all sizes between Europe, the U.S.A. and Costa Rica.

Over the last decade His lyricism, storytelling and live performances have earned him an ever-growing loyal global fan base, making him one of the very few Italian artists carving out a space on the international conscious music scene.

With his much-anticipated new album "Stay Open to Life", released in August 2024, Roaman has garnered widespread acclaim by both fans and critics who have praised his latest collection of songs as his most sonically mature and inspiring work to date, solidifying his status as one of the most interesting and compelling up and coming voices in today’s conscious music movement.
