A record for the holidays
After a 2026 as a protagonist, Sal Da Vinci is preparing to take on the role of Santa Claus. The play on words in the title already says it: the Neapolitan singer-songwriter becomes Sal Da Claus for his first album entirely dedicated to Christmas songs.
Sal Da Claus - The Christmas Album will be released on Friday 27 November by Atlantic Records/Warner Music Italy, but it is already possible to pre-order.
The first song to be released will be Oh Happy Day. The artist reinterprets the famous gospel, which will be available from Friday 13 November only on Amazon Music, within the international series of Christmas songs produced by the platform. Two physical formats are available for fans: the CD and a signed red vinyl, available only on Amazon. The rest of the tracklist has not yet been announced.
A year to remember
The Christmas album closes an extraordinary year for Sal Da Vinci. In February the artist won the Sanremo Festival with Per semper Sì, written by himself. The victory opened the doors to the Eurovision Song Contest, where he represented Italy, finishing fifth with 281 points. Then came a long theater tour, with many sold out dates, which ended on November 3rd in Florence.
National success, for Sal Da Vinci, came after a very long career. Son of art, he began as a child alongside his father Mario Da Vinci, himself an interpreter of Neapolitan song. Over the years, he has alternated music with theater and television. Already in the summer of 2024 the single Rossetto e caffè, which went gold, had made him known to a much wider audience.
