Trovo rifugio nella mente
il labirinto oscuro nascosto
che non trovo
sorridendo
nell'incertezza della sobria coscienza
re inconscio nei corridoi neurali
che guidano i miei gesti
piove la nuvola
che sfuma il sole morente
io cammino lungo quella luce
che brillava di vita
corro deciso ingenuamente verso te
mi tendi l'inganno
trovo rifugio nelle melma
il labirinto oscuro mistero
che non trovo o no
sorridendo
nell'ingegnosa setta del richiamo
re inconscio nei corridoi neurali
che guidano i miei gesti
piove la nuvola
che sfuma il sole morente
io cammino lungo quella luce
che brillava di vita
corro deciso ingenuamente verso te
mi tendi l'inganno
l'incoerenza mi blocca
riconosco la verità dall'inganno
ma mi attrai
come una spirale
mi vizi dei tuoi incanti
piove la nuvola
che sfuma il sole morente
io cammino lungo quella luce
che brillava di vita
corro deciso ingenuamente verso te
mi tendi l'inganno
corro deciso ingenuamente verso te
"Le note non conoscono ostacoli, gli uomini sì. Per questo la musica è la mia forza, la mia vita." Pierfrancesco Madeo è nato il 28 marzo 1984 e vive a Longobucco in provincia di Cosenza. A diciassette anni si iscrive alla Giuseppe Verdi, scuola musicale di Rossano Calabro, dove frequenta il corso di tecnica vocale. Raccoglie i primi applausi in festival popolari e concerti di piazza. La distrofia muscolare non uccide la sua creatività: così inizia a dedicarsi alla scrittura di testi musicali e alla realizzazione della propria idea di arte. Nel 2003, a San Giacomo d'Acri, partecipa al suo primo concorso canoro e si classifica terzo. Nell'estate dello stesso anno, i primi successi: a Rossano Calabro è premiato come Miglior talento e con il brano Se adesso te ne vai vince nella categoria Cover. Nel 2004 partecipa al prestigioso Mia Martini, festival dedicato alla grande artista calabrese: Sento, scritto con il musicista Egert Pano, arriva in semifinale. È il suo primo inedito. Identico risultato al Festival di Napoli, dove esegue Tracce di te di Francesco Renga e presenta Amica Forever. Il 2005 è decisivo: interpreta Angelo, altro brano di Francesco Renga, e vince Armonia fra le note, concorso musicale promosso dall'associazione socioculturale Firmo di Cosenza. Sempre nel 2005 è tra i finalisti di Voce di Calabria con l'inedito Immenso mare e incide il suo secondo album Editi e Inediti. Nel 2006 partecipa e vince il Festival della Canzone Cristiana di Rossano Calabro. Il 4 giugno 2006, ancora a Rossano Calabro, nell'ambito del sesto concorso nazionale per giovani musicisti, riceve dalla giuria tecnica F.I.D.A.P.A il premio speciale Cantautore. Due mesi dopo partecipa a Sanremo Rock e a Una Voce per Sanremo: in entrambi i concorsi raccoglie due ottimi terzi posti. Sono proprio queste importanti gratificazioni ad ispirare Scalata al successo, suo terzo album semiprofessionale. Nel 2008 partecipa alle selezioni di X-Factor e del Festival di Castrocaro Terme. Nel frattempo, oltre a numerose esibizioni nelle piazze d'Italia, intensifica la sua attività autoriale collaborando con compositori e arrangiatori professionisti. A maggio del 2009 esce Magma: è il suo primo album professionale, distribuito dall'etichetta discografica Sound On Sound. Il 2010 è l'anno della consacrazione: a gennaio raggiunge le selezioni finali del Festival di Sanremo, nella categoria Nuova Generazione. A settembre approda negli States, dove è finalista al Festival della canzone Italiana di New York. A dicembre è invitato da Rai Uno come ospite per la maratona di Telethon. Nel 2011 è semifinalista al celebre Hyundai Music Awards della Universal Music. Il 2012 è l'anno di San Remo: alle selezioni del festival della canzone italiana presenta il singolo Angeli di un sogno. Utopia, e siamo nell'aprile 2013, è il suo ultimo disco: sognante, combattivo e sprezzante dell'ipocrisia dei falsi sorrisi, è il suo manifesto artistico e di vita più completo. Nel 2014 entra come associato in Muovi La Musica, no profit diretta da Alberto Salerno. ENGLISH "Notes don't know obstacles, men do. For this reason, music is my strength, my life." Pierfrancesco Madeo was born on the 28th of March, 1984 and lives in Longobucco, in the province of Cosenza.

In 2008 he participates in the selections of X-Factor and in the Festival of Castrocaro Terme. In the meanwhile, he intensifies his activity as an author, works together with composers and arrangers and performs in a lot of Italian squares.
