Michele Bravi

Michele Bravi won X Factor Italy in 2013, which put him in front of a national audience. His self-titled debut album came out the following year, and he's released others since, like 'Anime di Carta' in 2016 and '25' in 2020.

Some of his songs, like 'Mantieni Il Bacio' and 'Il Diario Degli Errori', have a straightforward, melodic quality that works well on Italian radio. He often performs with a backing band, though the specific musicians have changed over time.

In 2018, Bravi publicly discussed his bisexuality, which sparked conversation in Italy. A few years later, in late 2020, he was involved in a car accident where a motorcyclist died. He stepped back from public appearances for a while after that.
