Carmen Marsico Biography
CARMEN MARSICO
MEDITERRANEAN VOCALIST & DANCER
Award winning Italian vocalist, songwriter and dancer Carmen Marsico hails from the mountainous and wild region of Basilicata, a dramatic landscape that also inhabits her heart and can be heard in her music. She has immersed herself in the traditions of the south of Italy and tirelessly delved deeper into researching the origins of these sounds. On that journey she has followed paths that led her to other cultures and musical traditions; as she's spun this web wider and wider, patterns have emerged and grown bolder. Apart from being a performer she is also an Associate Professor of Voice at Berklee College of Music.
