About Lucio Corsi
Lucio Corsi has established himself as one of Italy’s most distinctive musical voices, blending the rich tradition of Italian cantautori with glam rock influences and poetic lyricism. Born in Tuscany, Corsi’s musical journey began in Grosseto before moving to Milan.
After releasing acclaimed albums like 'Cosa faremo da grandi?' and winning Sanremo with 'Volevo Essere Un Duro' (I Wanted to Be a Tough Guy), he secured Italy’s Eurovision spot. The song’s cinematic quality and vivid storytelling shine through.
Corsi’s theatrical style and retro flair make him a standout in Eurovision 2025.
