Marta Sui Tubi is an Italian band whose music can be characterized as an eclectic blend of rock, folk, and indie elements, infused with poetic lyrics and a distinctively Italian flavor. Formed in Sicily in 2002 by Giovanni Gulino and Carmelo Pipitone, the duo later expanded by adding bassist Ivan Paolini, and in various phases of their career, they've been accompanied by other musicians. Their name, which translates to "Marta on the Tubes," references a friend who used to climb on the heating pipes in her house, portraying a sense of freedom and unconventionality that reflects in their musical ethos.

Over the years, Marta Sui Tubi has made a significant impact on the Italian music scene with a string of albums and singles that showcase their ability to blend heartfelt storytelling with complex instrumentation. Their collaboration with the legendary Italian singer-songwriter Lucio Dalla on the track "Cromatica" is a highlight in their discography, representing a fusion of generational talents. Songs like "LoStileOstile," "Salva Gente," and "Cinque la Luna, le Spine e il Live" resonate with fans for their raw emotion and creative musicality. The band's passionate delivery and authentic storytelling have cemented their place as influential performers and songwriters in Italian contemporary music.
