Bebawinigi, born Virginia Quaranta, is a singer, actress, composer and multi-instrumentalist, described as "the young Italian Diamanda Galas" by the press. In March 2018, the Radio3's programme 'Battiti' placed her among the best emerging
female artists within contemporary international experimental scene. Bebawinigi is a performance music solo project. It is an all-round experiment. The artist experiments with a multitude of genres and merges them with an experimental rock and avant-garde taste in order to create something new; with her voice, her main instrument, through a broad range of timbre, vocal register and different colours; with instrumentation, playing musical instruments as well as using ordinary objects in an unconventional way; with verbal communication, by an invented language: in fact, she often employs the "grammelot" instead of English or Italian, encouraging the audience to find their own interpretation of the track rather than imposing a specific meaning; with theatricality, through a performance which is influenced by her parallel activity as histrionic actress. The name Bebawinigi, according to the artist, represents the graceless, grotesque, disturbing and inherently flawed creature that lies in each one of us, which we try to get rid of when we become adults, but it will always be part of us.

Also available: STUPOR (2LP/RED) (LP).
