Calcutta (singer)
Edoardo D'Erme (born 19 April 1989 in Latina, Lazio), better known as Calcutta, is an Italian singer-songwriter. He debuted with the album ''Forse…'', released by Geograph Records in 2012. Its follow-up, ''Mainstream'', was released by Bomba Dischi on 30 November 2015, preceded by the single "Cosa mi manchi a fare".

In 2018, Calcutta's third studio album, ''Evergreen'', became his first number-one on the Italian Albums Chart. The album spawned singles including "Orgasmo", "Paracetamolo" and "P ...
