I made a video interview with Crifiu in the evocative setting of the Ristorante Bar la Zinzulusa in Castro (LE)

On June 8, 2025, I had the pleasure and honor of interviewing the Crifiu, in the splendid setting of the La Zinzulusa Restaurant Bar in Castro (LE), a stone's throw from the sea and under the gaze of the Zinzulusa Cave, one of the most evocative places in our Salento.

An intense encounter, made of genuine words and music that still speaks to the heart. With Crifiu, we talked about identity, the South, the Mediterranean, cross-fertilization, the role of art in a fragile time, and the strength that comes from staying true to oneself while experimenting.
We also delved into their latest album, "Community Vol. 1," released on April 29, 2025, a powerful, timely, and collaborative effort that marks a new stage in their musical journey. We also focused on "Merci," the new single released on April 15, 2025, on all digital stores: a song that combines gratitude, mindfulness, and rhythm, in perfect Crifiu style.

The video interview—which will be published soon—reveals their clear-eyed perspective on the present and their unwavering desire to build bridges between cultures through music. A sincere dialogue, enriched by the allure of a place that, all by itself, tells ancient and profound stories.

I gratefully thank Antonio Rizzo of Ristorante Bar La Zinzulusa for the warm hospitality that made this experience possible.
Heartfelt thanks to the Crifiu for accepting my invitation and for sharing fragments of beauty and thought with me and with you, the readers.

Special thanks also to Giuseppe Fersini di Castro, curator of the Castro Turismo app, for his valuable collaboration in creating the space dedicated to the interview.
