How do most people prefer to consume music in Palermo?<\/strong><\/p>\n

In Palermo, music is divided between different factions: some people listen to more or less famous bands that come to play in our historical pubs, and some people listen to loud music inside their cars or on their bikes (yes, bikes!) with super-powered speakers.<\/p>\n

There are also some shy people who listen with earbuds while walking around the city, surrounded by unique art masterpieces.<\/p>\n

Does living in Palermo influence the music you make?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes. Our city influences our music in part.<\/p>\n
