’Somebody New’ is the new single from Marta Del Grandi’s new album, ’Until We Fossilize’, out 5th November. Listen/Order here: Somebody New is about growing and changing. It talks about identity and the difficulty of being ourselves despite the others’ expectations. It was written during a trip to Jaisalmer in Rajasthan, where Marta learnt about a bird species called the Great Indian Bustard; these birds are on the brink of extinction because of the infrastructures that were built inside their habitat, the desert. Because they fly low, they often get trapped in the electricity wires. Their story triggered a reflection on how the context around us affects what we may become. Is it even possible to fully be ourselves? Directed, filmed and edited by Andrea Luporini. Choreographed and performed by Alice Parodi and Lorenzo Diofili. Special thanks to Arci Canaletto La Spezia, Sara Bottinelli, Rishi Jha. Follow Marta Del Grandi:
