Who is La Niña?

La Niña — official poster for Color Fest 14, Day 3

La Niña is the stage name of Carola Moccia, Neapolitan singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer. His project stems from the need to create a dialogue between the Neapolitan tradition with a contemporary sensibility, using the Neapolitan dialect as a comprehensive expressive language — not a folkloric quirk, but a poetic tool capable of spanning music, theatre, cinema and dance. Over the years, she has established herself as one of the most original and independent figures in the the new Italian scene, creating a world where the sacred and the popular, the archaic and the digital coexist naturally: he does not merely sing, he creates works in which the voice is just one of the languages at play.

Furèsta: the Targa Tenco album

Before “Furèsta”, La Niña made his debut with the album “Vanitas” (2023), preceded by the single “You” with Franco Ricciardi, capable of exceeding 17 million views on YouTube. The episode that made her a star, however, is “Furèsta”, the second studio album released on 21 March 2025: the title is a Neapolitan word meaning wild, untamed, and the album is a rich work, filled with mandolins, choirs e protest songs, which explores the roots and transformations of Neapolitan music, blending past and future, the traditional and the experimental.

Written, composed and produced by La Niña together with Alfredo Maddaluno, “Furèsta” won the Targa Tenco Award for Best Album in Dialect, one of the most prestigious awards in Italian music. Among the tracks that preceded it were “Guapparìa” e “Daughter of the Storm”, perfect examples of his imagery, blending crime, childhood, the land and the storm.

The sound: avant-garde Neapolitan

The figure of La Niña is the a fusion of the Neapolitan dialect and contemporary culture: sings in Neapolitan weaving folk tradition, songwriting, R&B, electronics and a vein folk ritual Mediterranean. The result is a distinctive brand of avant-pop, in which electronic beats blend with mandolins and processional choruses, and the vocals shift between lament, invocation and dance.

Live, this exploration becomes a physical experience: the concert by La Niña is a secular ceremony a blend of trance and melodic passages, and it works so well on a beach at sunset because it finds in the landscape of the Riviera of Sunsets a natural resonance chamber.

La Niña on Day 3 of Color Fest 14

The Day 3 of Colour Fest 14, Thursday 13 August 2026, features the most intense and radical voices on the Italian and international scene, spanning singer-songwriters, post-punk and electronic music. Here are the artists sharing the stage with La Niña on the seafront of Lamezia Terme:

  • La Niña — the visionary and ritualistic Neapolitan of “Furèsta”
  • Dimartino — sophisticated and pop-oriented Sicilian singer-songwriting
  • Django Django — British psychedelic art-rock
  • Deadletter — edgy post-punk from London
  • Mai Mai - the The Black Mediterranean between electronics and ritual
  • OKGIORGIO — the DJ set that brings the day to a close on the dance floor

Together with La Niña, Dimartino e Mai Mai depict three different facets of our SouthNaples, the Sicilythe The Black Mediterranean — whilst Django Django e Deadletter add an international dimension. A day that is worth the trip to Calabria in itself.
