Tricarico

In 2013, Tricarico released his sixth studio album, Invulnerabile.

In 2009, Tricarico competed in the Big Artists section of the 58th Sanremo Music Festival with the song "Vita tranquilla", which received the Critics' Award "Mia Martini". The song was included in his third studio album, Giglio. Tricarico returned competing in the Sanremo Music Festival in 2009, performing the song "Il bosco delle fragole", and in 2011, singing "Tre colori", but both entries failed to reach the final. The songs were included in the albums Il bosco delle fragole (2009) and L'imbarazzo (2011), respectively.

Tricarico rose to fame in 2000, when he released his debut single, "Io sono Francesco", which hit number one in Italy, selling more than 60,000 copies and generating some controversy following its lyrical content, which included an insult to a school teacher and was therefore censored by some radio stations. Tricarico's self-titled debut album was released two years later. After releasing his second album, Frescobaldo nel recinto, tricarico wrote and recorded the song "Solo per te", which was played during the ending credits of Leonardo Pieraccioni's film Ti amo in tutte le lingue del mondo. The song received a nomination for the Nastro d'Argento 2006 for Best Original song.
