Valentina Sounds

Valentina Sounds is an Italian-born/Philadelphia-based singer-songwriter whose music influences draw inspiration from both continents. Raised as a classical pianist, during her teenage years she ditched Mozart for Led Zeppelin and started performing in rock bands across Italy. In her early twenties, she discovered songwriting, which allowed her to blend her love for rock music with her incredible intuition for hummable melodies. Her music training moved forward with a bachelor’s degree in jazz performance from University of the Arts, where she refined the art of composing, arranging, and producing. Valentina Sounds' music brings in a refreshing and hopeful spin on themes that touch everyone's lives. Her sense of humor brightens the darkness: she has the ability to translate complicated feelings such as anxiety, heartbreak, and regret, into beautifully catchy and upbeat compositions. Sarcastic, fun, honest, Valentina is a natural born performer. She draws audiences in with powerful vocals, pop/rock arrangements and a magnetic stage presence. Her newest releases have been featured on WXPN and DE Public Media, as well as gaining recognition on Spotify and YouTube. Thanks to her recent releases (“Wake me up”, “Fun”, “Count Your Blessings”), Valentina won the Homey Award for Best Female Solo Artist.
