Her strong Italian roots have also led her to perform Sicilian and Italian folk music, adding depth to her musical journey. She recently debuted an original opera electronica set at DPRTMNT Nightclub in Toronto and occasionally collaborates with groups like The Elvis Underground. Whether performing on the classical stage or in experimental music settings, she brings a bold and engaging presence to her work. @deiamusica https://www.tuneinfoundation.org/futurekings-1 daily 0.75 2025-11-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a29e579fe54efda225640d1/1732766632908-XTJO6ZD3R481NRSCEEAF/TTMNYKS+Jotform+Logo.png THE PLUG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a29e579fe54efda225640d1/1748281877929-U001DQJ07Z196SDDHEOV/Purpose+Sum-47.jpg THE PLUG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a29e579fe54efda225640d1/1748281898205-CR28KUWXVBF74YKCTOFH/Purpose+Sum-23.jpg THE PLUG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a29e579fe54efda225640d1/1748281920055-1EAYS69U1LF0LCK3YUL9/Purpose+Sum-44.jpg THE PLUG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a29e579fe54efda225640d1/1748282102452-J6SAE5XJ9UAU0T3X6YOK/Purpose+Sum-08.jpg THE PLUG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a29e579fe54efda225640d1/1748282162552-RJ3VDBTBXPYT11BOMNOG/Purpose+Sum-14.jpeg THE PLUG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a29e579fe54efda225640d1/1748282231506-2QYE3HFCDP9LQID02R19/Purpose+Sum-72.jpeg THE PLUG https://www.tuneinfoundation.org/amplified daily 0.75 2026-01-26 https://www.tuneinfoundation.org/legacylab daily 0.75 2026-02-27
