"Silverlines" is the upcoming debut solo single by Italian singer Damiano David. It is scheduled to be released on 27 September 2024, through Sony Music. It is marketed as a departure from his work with Italian rock band Måneskin, in order to express a more personal side of himself.
Background
[edit]On 10 November 2023, Italian rock band Måneskin released Rush! (Are U Coming?), the reissue to their third studio album, Rush!.[1] In the following month, in an interview with The Allison Hagendorf Show, the band's frontman and lead vocalist Damiano David was asked about the possibility of starting his musical career as a solo artist; he replied, "Why not? I think it could be a very healthy thing and a very destructive thing".[2] He added: "I think that [there] comes a point where every artist should do his own thing".[2] In September 2024, David started teasing his solo project on social media.[3] The singer posted on Instagram a video of him entering a limousine, in which the driver asks him where he wants to go, and David answers "Everywhere", the same word that he used to caption the post.[3] The video ends with the date "Sept. 27" flashing on the screen.[4] At the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards red carpet, David said to the Associated Press: "I've been working for a long, long time on a new project and September 27 is the date of release so I would love everyone to stay tuned".[5] He released a monologue to Spotify called "My name is Damiano David".[5]
"Silverlines" was announced via David's social media accounts on 18 September 2024, two days after teasing the participation of English singer and producer Labrinth on it.[6] Pre-saves for the song were made available on the same date.[7] Later, the production of Labrinth on the track was confirmed.[8] "Silverlines" was labeled as a departure from David's work with Måneskin, expressing a more personal side of himself.[9]
