Whispers: A Scar is Born

Biography

Solo project, started as a joke, on a cold fall of 2009, with the desire to reinterpret old Edgar Allan Poe, Boris Vian, Charles Baudelaire & Gregory Corso poems (and so on ...) and put them into music. The name comes from a short story by Edgar Allan Poe's, "William Wilson", who was a key figure in the poetry of the American writer. Fascinated and captivated by the power of the 'double' or 'doppelgänger', William Wilson becomes a perfect moniker to this new artistic reincarnation. It defines himself a songwriter, he writes, sings and plays his own songs and sometimes revisits other's, close to his style or even just to his mood. His works: - An LP in 2010, entitled "Just For You, Not For All", self released. - An EP in 2011, "Summer Holidays & Folk Routine" (quote that calls into question post-punk band "Refused") - A soundtrack in 2013 for the short film "17:34" by Patrick Caldelari, with two songs "A Lonely Game" & "Ever Than Before". - A collection in 2014, which contains almost all published and unpublished works from 2010 to 2014, with 25 songs, chosen from official records, live, b-sides and outtakes titled "What I Used To Be", available at gigs in CD format and through the artist's Bandcamp Store. - A single in 2015, "A Dream Within A Dream" (from the famous poem by Edgar Allan Poe), self-released - A new LP in 2016, "Whispers: A Scar is Born" with 9 brand new tracks, out for Seahorse Recordings / Audioglobe
