In 2011 she continued her live activity with her “live solo shows”, but accompanied by a series of effects and pedalboards that make her look like an entire band. In 2012 she published “Al cuore fa bene far le scale” a collection of poems and songs born from the collaboration with the poet Patrizia Cavalli (Voland / Sunnybit).
