It’s now online Goodnight Colour, the live set by Fabio Nirta recorded live by the sea, at the Lido Colour, at 2 am on 13 August 2026, during the Colour Fest 14. They are 67 minutes e 18 tracks played just a few metres from the water, on the Riviera of Sunsets by Lamezia Terme, when the stages had already gone dark. You can find it on the festival’s YouTube channel, with a separate video for each song.

A set for nights away from the dancefloor

Goodnight Colour It is a set «reworks drumless» that Fabio Nirta has been created exclusively for the Colour Fest: reworked tracks without drums, which strip away the beat and make way for the vocals, the chords and the breathing space within the songs.

It’s a set autobiographical e underwear. It tells of nights far removed from the lights of the dancefloor, illuminated only by the dim glow of a lamp on the bedside table of a solitary bedroom.

They are delicate songs you can trust, marvellous songs that Fabio has bathed in the midnight blue of our August sea.

They are all songs that thrive on delicate balances, of realisations, hopes and disillusionments. Fabio Nirta he accompanied them live for long stretches with the strings and with the warm sounds of his beloved Juno.

Recorded at Lido Color, at 2 am

The Lido Colour is the beach area of the Colour Fest, on the Falcone and Borsellino promenade. During the 14th edition It hosted the daytime events by the sea and, every night, the final set following the concerts on the four stages.

The 13 August, at 2 am, it was the turn of Goodnight Colour: a way to round off the evening by turning the volume down rather than up, with the sound of the sea in the background.

The video accompanies the audio with a single image: the full moon over the sea at night, playing on a loop for the entire duration of the set, with graphics from the 14th edition and the slogan «Summer on a Solitary Beach». The audio is the recording made that night, unedited.
