Matteo Michelino

Between France and Brazil, Matteo Michelino is developing an acoustic folk-pop project centered on fingerstyle guitar, singing, and arrangement work performed with instruments recorded in direct takes. A singer, guitarist and multi-instrumentalist, Matteo Michelino builds songs where intimate writing rests on an organic texture, with smooth melodies and compositions that evolve without losing their overall simplicity. His universe draws on American folk, British pop, as well as Brazilian and African influences that appear as touches in the rhythmic playing, in the harmonic colors, and in the movement of the instruments. This approach gives Matteo Michelino's music a kind of acoustic warmth, carried by a clear attention to dynamics and the spatial aspect of sound. Online discography information remains limited, but music platforms and MusicBrainz place Matteo Michelino in a singer-songwriter realm at the crossroads of contemporary folk and artisanal pop, conceived around guitar playing and a live format that prioritizes proximity.
