Music for change

Candy Trees is the artistic project of Francesco Lodola.
Unique in his field, he is capable of reaching high levels in both physics and music.
Between playing concerts at festivals and venues and writing scientific papers, he is also involved in activism.

The upcoming album, “Change it all”, written and produced entirely by Francesco in his bedroom, follows this direction. Social and climate justice are the main themes of the record, sometimes hidden in more intimate lyrics and sometimes expressed more explicitly. The album encourages listeners to change the world into a slightly better one, with a positive attitude.

This work blends his research as a PhD in physics on solar renewable energy, his vegan lifestyle and activism, and his intrinsic artistic nature.

The album is preceded by a live record, “Live for Palestine”, containing live versions of the album’s songs.

The music project is a piano pop project,
where fascinating pop vocal melodies                                                                             blend into innovative neoclassical piano parts
within an electronic pop structure. 

This creates a truly innovative sound and style.

During live performances,
Francesco plays with the band,
which gives him the freedom to
add piano solos and
improvisations to the
structure of the pop songs,
enchanting the audience with
memorable melodies. He also performs solo acoustic sets with just the piano.
