Press
"With insect like persistence, she personifies the meaning of indifference" is a line from Dom Italiano's tune 'Indifference'. In essence that line itself personifies the local singer songwriter's quirky and amiable style. For Dom, who has released three independent albums, gigs regularly and also plays and records with his band Insidezero, spending time on lyrics is crucial. "Lyrics are the most important part of the song. A lot of people feel that melody is, and even structure, but I just feel like the person who’s singing the song, or a character, needs to be at a different point at the end of the song than they were at the start. Otherwise, it’s not really… you need to grow, as a character."
