“Hellya!” is a raw, rock-infused outburst born from a moment of deep apathy and creative frustration. The track blends emotional intensity with a bold, energetic sound that marks a new, definitive direction in my artistry. It captures the urge to break free from personal and cultural constraints and reclaim music as pure expression. With its powerful arrangement and unapologetic mood, “Hellya!” speaks to listeners who seek authenticity, emotional depth, and a strong artistic identity.
Born in Naples on January 16, 2001, and raised in Arzano, Less experienced a nomadic but happy childhood, marked by continuous moving and the warm affection of her family. Being the daughter of two leather workers, Less learned from an early age the value of resilience and change.
The turning point came at the age of 8: her family moved to Fano, in the Marche region, in search of a better life. This experience marked the beginning of a path of continuous rediscoveries and adaptations. Moving to Scandicci when Less was 11 years old, and the loss of her grandmother, a key figure in her childhood, further shook her family and personal life.
Her adolescence was marked by intense personal discovery. Less discovered the guitar and singing, tools that soon became the means to express her inner world. Songwriting started almost as a game, but soon proved to be an authentic channel of expression. At the same time she realized her sexual orientation, a revelation received with serenity but leading to conflicts and misunderstandings within her family. Music became her shelter, a place where she could be herself without filters.
The young artist began to write songs that reflect her life, loves, and struggles. Tracks like «Why Do You Lie?» and «Hole» emerged from deep personal experiences, transforming pain and confusion into art.
The Covid-19 pandemic represented another turning point. Isolated but determined, Less invested in a home studio and dedicated herself to writing and recording, finding new ways for her creativity. Her talent did not go unnoticed: she met the producers Lorenzo Santi and Federico Maremmi, who both worked together with Marco Lega at the Kapow Vintage Studio in Florence, with whom she developed an almost familial relationship, pushing her towards new artistic horizons.
Her first singles, “Up and Down” and “I need all your love”, just released at the beginning of 2025, are the sublimation of her journey from adolescence to adulthood, while the latest single, ‘Instead Of Making Love (Say Hello)’, released on Oct 30th and reviewed enthusiastically, represents her first step towards artistic maturity, which will take her from melancholic ballads to more intense energies with more rock-oriented paradigms.
Today Less presents herself as a multifaceted figure: part child, part mature woman, completely immersed in the world of emotions and music. Her art is a journey through her experiences, an invitation to share emotional universes that, while deeply personal, resonate universally. Less and her band shows all the numbers through psychedelic rock arrangements, exalting the deep atmospheres of the lyrics and of her voice.
