Angelica Bove (born 5 May 2003) is an Italian singer-songwriter.

Early life and education

Born in Rome in 2003 to quadruplets alongside siblings Silvia, Aurora, and Michelangelo,[1] she is the daughter of Eleonora Paliani, who had already had a son, Davide, before the quadruplets.[2][3] A year later, Jacopo was born, completing the large family, a detail that became public knowledge due to the exceptional nature of the case.[4][5]

From a young age, she was drawn to music, spontaneously discovering her vocal talent.[6][7] At nineteen, she lost both her parents in a tragic car accident.[8][9] To overcome her grief, she began to actively dedicate herself to music, posting covers of well-known hits on TikTok and finding singing a form of personal expression.[10][11]

Career

In June 2023 she decided to sign up for the casting of the seventeenth edition of the talent show X Factor, hosted by Francesca Michielin, where she took part in Ambra Angiolini's team.[12][13] She was then eliminated during the semi-final on 30 November,[14] in which she performed her single "L'inverno".[15]

On 4 October 2024 she released the autobiographical single "Bellissimo e poi niente".[16] In the same month she was selected to participate in Sanremo Giovani 2024,[17] the youth competition for the Sanremo Music Festival 2025, with the song "La nostra malinconia".[18][19] After making it through the first round[20] and the semifinal,[21] reaching the final where she was eliminated.[22][23]

In October 2025, she was again selected to participate in Sanremo Giovani 2025,[24] with the song "Mattone".[25][26] After making it through the first round[27] and the semifinal,[28] she reached the final, where she managed to qualify for the Sanremo Music Festival 2026 in the Newcomers section.[29][30] After passing the semi-final on 25 February, the following day she ranked second in the final of the third evening,[31] winning the "Mia Martini" Critics' Award and the "Lucio Dalla" Radio-TV-Web Press Room Award.[32][33] The song anticipated her first studio album Tana,[34] released on 30 January 2026 and consisting of nine tracks.[35][36]
