Daniela Pes, 32, was born in Sardinia, Italy. Growing up in Tempio Pausania, she is fluent in both standard Italian and her Gallurian region’s dialect, Gallurese.
On her debut album, 2023’s ‘SPIRA’, Pes sings in a combination of Italian and Gallurese. She effortlessly moves between them combining idiomatic phrases with word jumbles, choosing lyrics for their sonic satiny feel, over logical semantic placement.
