Federica Abate Chechile

Feeda is a singer-songwriter and musician who, from Salerno, opens the doors of her personal universe to us. His authentic writing is combined with a lo-fi attitude, mixed with experimental pop sounds. The result is a sound full of emotions, always poised between tension and harmony, which however does not sacrifice a suggestive melodic dimension. What is striking about Feeda's songs is its energy, disruptive and delicate, which vents the artist's torments without ever losing an innate harmony. In 2026, in fact, she releases her debut album "stay straight to thunder", available on all streaming platforms from Friday 17 April. Anticipated by the singles "I don't like it anymore" and "it's not a dream", the album is an introspective journey into the intimate world of Feeda, who puts to music the fears, anxieties and thoughts that have accompanied her in the last years of growth. A whispered generational manifesto, as personal as it is choral, which explores, dissects and faces, gut or sideways, the moods that inhabit the mind grappling with our era. An open letter, a confrontation on equal terms with herself, to learn to know and accept herself, without fear of making mistakes or not recognizing herself in the mirror. The intent of the album is to highlight the fragility that inhabits human beings and arouse emotional images in the listener in which they can recognize themselves. And, with his sensitivity and his clear and velvety voice, Feeda perfectly manages to create ethereal dimensions in which to share sensations and emotions. Not only that: the purpose, declared or not, is to overturn the dangerous games of the mind and transform negative thoughts into positive ones. Learning to accept yourself, learning to accept that, if things don't go as your mind had planned, it's okay too: the sky is not collapsing. Hence the idea of the title, "Stay straight to thunder": an invitation to remain anchored to oneself, not to be shaken by storms, to remember that the sky does not collapse. As for the sound of the record, it contains both acoustic elements and electronic elements, such as synths, which amplify the spectrum of sound sensations. The bass plays a fundamental role: used to give depth to the melodic texture, it creates suggestive and dense layers, which feed the introspective dimension of the record. Overall it is an alt-pop work with a strong component of electronic experimentation, which nevertheless remains refined and enveloping. At times it touches on r&b sounds, thanks also to the full-bodied timbre of Feeda.
