ROAMAN (alias riccardo Vitalone) is a singer-songwriter, artivist and storyteller from italy weaving uplifting melodies and heart-opening lyricism to amplify joy, hope AND truth.
his music is a doorway to the Heart, a balm for the troubled mind, a soulful testament to the power of music to shake, heal and uplift.
Drawing inspiration from a rich tapestry of folk, reggae, gospel, hip hop, and medicine music, Roaman blends irresistible rhythms, unforgettable melodies, and exceptionally powerful lyrics to craft anthems of joy, (inner)freedom and resilience that feel like both a celebration and a meditation.
With radical authenticity, humour and a perfect balance of “groove & grace”, Roaman’s music invites us to trust and let go, embrace the full spectrum of our humanity—both the light and the shadows—with compassion and love, and step into the world with kindness and fearlessness as catalysts for positive change.
with a blend of the fresh and the familiar, grounded in a timeless essence, His songs carry forward the wisdom of beloved teachers, sages, and mystics, whose teachings have profoundly shaped his journey as both an artist and a man.
His unique voice emerges from an eclectic fusion of modern sounds, "artivism," and a gift for conveying ancient truths in a way that feels alive, relevant, and relatable to today's world.
From street-performing in Camden Town (London, UK) to electrifying audiences at festivals around the world alongside artists like Mose, Sam Garrett, Ajeet, Nessi Gomes, Peia, Aware and Facesoul, Roaman’s journey has been one of steady, organic growth, one that has taken the “roaming roman” to perform on stages of all sizes between Europe, the U.S.A. and Costa Rica.
over the last decade His lyricism, storytelling and live performances have earned him an ever-growing loyal global fan base, making him one of the very few Italian artists carving out a space on the international conscious music scene.
With his much-anticipated new album "Stay Open to Life", released in August 2024, Roaman has garnered widespread acclaim by both fans and critics who have praised his latest collection of songs as his most sonically mature and inspiring work to date, solidifying his status as one of the most interesting and compelling up and coming voices in today’s conscious music movement.
As of September 2024 Roaman resides in Italy where he keeps writing and producing original music to “make the revolution irresistible”, giving private online sessions and public workshops on "conscious songwriting" and planning the next moves to bring his music and message to the people.
