Arezzo Wave
Arezzo Wave is a famous Italian festival that takes place every July in Arezzo since 1987. Born exclusively as a launching platform for young Italian rock groups, in its current form, the festival lasts six days and is totally free of charge.

(The spelling ''Jovanotti'' is anglicized; the letter J is rarely used in Italian) Jovanotti is commonly known to his fans by the diminutive form "Jova", and often refers to himself that way in promotional items and on his Web TV channel Jova.TV, which launched 2 October 2014. Jovanotti gradually departed from his early mix of Hip hop music, hip hop, rap and disco, taking in funk, world music and even classical arrangements and ska influences.
