THE mane skin took part in the most glamorous evening of the festival Cannes, that of the premier of Elvis, the film dedicated to the legendary Presley. Perhaps it was precisely because of the importance of the evening that the four members of the Roman rock band appeared “less casual than usual and easily intimidated”as Dagospia called them.
The Maneskins, on the other hand, recovered well after the film’s showing: they raged at the party on the beach, even at one point to Elvis’ “If I can dream”. Song they sang themselves for the film’s soundtrack. “Elvis created our work – explained the members of the group – he was the first superstar ever, he is an icon.” “I think that every contemporary artist is influenced by Elvis – said Damiano David – because the idea of a performer is with him was born. In front of him, the singers stood behind the microphone stand, he really changed the history of music”.
In short, the maneskin’s golden moment continues: after Sanremo, Eurovision, the United States and Coachella, the Roman rockers have also conquered the red carpet of the Cannes Festival. And they did it their way: after Coachella’s “Down with Putin,” the new provocation came straight from the hotel they were staying at. On his Instagram account, Damiano posted a photo while smoking accompanied by the caption, “I smoke Cannes.”
