The Summer Festival celebrates its twentieth year of uninterrupted activity. It’s thanks to  its patron, Mimmo D’Alessandro, that this year it’s presenting top name in Lucca’s Piazza Napoleone.

On 22nd July, at 9.30 pm, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis from Seattle are playing (their only Italian date). The two young men have emerged as the hip hop group flagship, known for their electrifying live show and their excellent and innovative music videos. Ben Haggerty (real name Macklemore) made his debut in the music world in 2000 as Professor Macklemore, but the turning point came in 2009 thanks to a meeting with producer Ryan Lewis with whom, in 2013, he recorded “The Heist” containing “Thrift Shop”. The success of “Thrift Shop” has not only been popular on YouTube but in America has sold over two million copies, entering the top forty of the Billboard Top 100 (… ..and it’s still climbing). Their world tour has sold out everywhere. Macklemore & Ryan Lewis represent Hip Hop better than anyone else.
