Laura Mollica is an Italian singer, actress, and musician, considered one of the most important interpreters and researchers of traditional Sicilian musical heritage. Born into an artistic family, she inherited her passion from her father, Ignazio Mollica, an ethnomusicologist and musician, and from a young age began a journey to revive and promote the island's folk songs. Her career is distinguished by her ability to reinterpret ancient ballads, work songs, tarantellas, and stories of love and struggle in a modern and personal style, characterized by powerful vocal expressiveness. Her discography includes significant albums such as *Halea*, *Trinacria*, and *Canti e incanti di Sicilia*, which testify to her deep connection to her Sicilian cultural roots. For her artistic contribution, she has received numerous awards, including the prestigious Rosa Balistreri Prize, which establishes her as the heir and successor to the great tradition of female folk singing in Sicily. She performs extensively in Italy and abroad, establishing herself as an authoritative ambassador of Sicilian culture to the world.
