“How brilliant she is!” (Angelo Aquaro, Il Venerdì di Repubblica)
“A singer of rare versatility” (Cliff Furnald, Rootsworld, USA)
“A sovereign voice between folk, chanson, vocal experiment and soulful pop” (Seite 37, Germany)

“A unique singer in her kind, a master of the voice in all its possibilities” (Jacopo Tomatis, Il Giornale della Musica)
“…she owns a high-class voice and keeps her balance among ethnic roots, contemporaneous music and the right dose of electronics” (Fabrizio Zampa, Il Messaggero)
“… one of the most interesting voices in the Italian scene” (Emiliano Corraretti, Left)
“Luisa Cottifogli is a rare diamond” (G.C., Beat Magazine)
Luisa is an artist of the voice: voice to her means singing, transforming sounds, composing, improvising, acting and traveling in different cultures, but starting from the culture she belongs to, then drawing from this palette of colors to “paint” her sound projects.
Her latest recording is “Like a tree in winter”, in which voices play a major role. Produced together with Gabriele Bombardini it is dedicated to the North, mountains and metaphorically to the hard life of mankind.
Rumì is also a multimedia event, a concert immersed in suggestive videos and ancient stories: it magically joins together contemporary sounds and words from a past world, progressive-jazz-rock sounds with the colors of the dialect and the imaginative world from Romagna.
