Olimpia Simone

Live music is how I tell stories

I'm a singer from Altamura, in Puglia, with a pop-jazz sound and a touch of bossa nova. I bring my voice live to weddings and events.

My story

Olimpia was born in Altamura, Puglia, in 1981 and started singing at eight, in the car with her father Orazio, an event organiser who worked with several bands. At twelve she decided to study properly: first in Altamura, then with jazz singer Mariella Carbonara and at the conservatory.

The stage came one step at a time: the Castrocaro Festival, second place at Cantagiro, and a show dedicated to Franco Califano that earned praise from Antonello Mazzeo, his longtime drummer. In 2019 she released the single “Mi chiamo unica”.

In 2025 she released Ingannevole, her first album of original songs, made with singer and musician Mario Rosini: eleven tracks, seven of them written and arranged by him, featuring Fabrizio Bosso, Giovanni Astorino, Mimmo Campanale, Paolo Romano and Pino Mazzarano. It is the sound she loves most, pop-jazz with a bossa nova touch. The album also gave rise to the single “Mistero”.

Altamura is home: it is where she bases her work and her live performances, from concerts to weddings and events.
