What can heal the soul of a woman consumed by the label “hysterical”, by half of her life spent in an asylum, and by the massive use of psychiatric drugs? The search for beauty and the hope of being able to portray it with words may not be enough, but it could surely help. Encouraged by fellow musician, translator, and literature expert Massimo Ceravolo, Nicole Stella investigates the healing power of art, the condition of women and the mental health stigma in a seven-track, acoustic concept album inspired by the story of Vivienne Haigh-Wood. For the first time in Italian.

"Nicole Stella [...] delivers seven intense tracks, filled with acoustic sounds, a product of her multi-instrumentalist skills. Raw arrangements support the dramatic flair in each song. A beautiful, authentic, moving album: a slap and a caress at once." (Michele Neri, Vinile n.13 - May/June 2018 - English translation)

Independently produced and released, "Something To Say" crosses the border of folk and acoustic music, to offer a variegate tracklist, where pop-rock tunes, intimate ballads, folksongs, blues, and electro-rock experiments all sit together. With this album, you can dive into reflective atmospheres or dance to the grit of rock'n'roll. You can find the escapologist "Houdini" as a symbol of freedom, or the story of Salinger's Glass Family in the dark mood of "A Letter". You can find a little rest from the need of always having "Something To Say", or a soothing melody for hard times in "Dead End". And way more...

"It was nice to hear the way the classic rock feel combined with the folk stylings. No matter the style, the artist's voice was always the start of the show." (April H., Divide And Conquer music blog)
