As part of his China Tour, Giorgio Poi will be performing in Hong Kong within the frame of the XXIV Week of the Italian Language in the World and as part of the Italian autumn Festival Italia on Stage.
Giorgio was born in Novara and grew up in Rome. After travelling in London, Berlin and in the U.S.A., he released Fa Niente in 2017 through Bomba Dischi/Universal, which received great reviews by the press and the critics.
Exceptional singer, songwriter and musician (he plays different instruments, guitar, bass, drums to name a few) with a relentless live activity behind him and fruitful collaborations with artists on both the Italian and international scene, in 2019 he released his second album Smog.
After composing the original soundtrack of Summertime (Netflix), he came back in autumn 2021 with the release of I Pomeriggi, a single that marked his return to the scene and he wrote Giorni Felici taking inspiration from the book with the same name created by cartoonist Zuzu, who also designed the official cover of the song for this occasion. On December 3, 2021 he released the album Gommapiuma (Bomba dischi / Universal Music) which was praised by music critics. On May 18, 2022, Haute Saison was released, the new single by Rob & Jack Lahana with the participation of Giorgio Poi and Gordon Tracks. The video for the song marked the directorial debut of actress Natalie Portman. Ossesso is the latest single by Italian singer-songwriter Giorgio Poi which was released on June 1, 2022 by Bomba Dischi and Universal Music Italia. After the success of his tour in different clubs during the spring of 2023, Giorgio Poi is now engaged in a series of special concerts in which he performs in an acoustic duo with piano, guitar and voice.
