This is the fourth album by guitarist and singer Maria Giua, who was born in Rapallo Italy.  Since 2003, she has participated in international festivals including theater projects both as author and as a performer.

Maria is a writer at Sugar Music in Milan, involved in the arts and entertainment in Florence, and artistic director at Pervocesola, a non-profit cultural center in Genova.

She has recorded a track for “Italian Café”, Putumayo 2005, “Giua”, self-titled album on Sony 2008, and “TrE” on EGEA Music 2012. 

ITI Music and EGEA Music are proud to join together in distributing her first American release, called “And Suddenly” (E Improvvisamente”), on Warrant Music.

Sung in Italian, this Italian singer-songwriter could be compared to another famous male Italian singer who sings standards, opera and pop tunes.  Even in Italian, you can feel the happiness, sadness and everyday emotions in these twelve tracks, as Maria bridges the genres with her songs.
