PAOLA PELLEGRINI LEXROCK The Official Channel Florence www.lexrock.it It is not an easy task describing the talents of Paola Pellegrini, an intricate all-around expression of rock. The term that best describes her diverse nature would be "polyhedral": professional lawyer in the city of Florence by day and a devout rock guitarist, singer/songwriter by night. Her passion for hard rock/punk/metal came at an early age. Ever since she was a little girl she has been playing guitar and writing songs. Having been a member of various bands, she started her solo career: PAOLA PELLEGRINI LEXROCK, coining the terms LEX=LAW and ROCK to describe her commitment to protect the constitutionally guaranteed rights of people and the sense of disruptive force and love for authenticity which is ROCK. After recording her first demo "Agape" (2013), her journey towards artistic and musical success began, leading Paola to the label “Qua’ rock Records” that just released her first album "Dreams Come True". The album is all about love: not mawkish or superficial love, but love translated into music, sometimes angry, sometimes poetic, sometimes fun, but all the time with great passion and emotion. Even in the darkest and aggressive episodes i.e. the song “Amore Abissale’= Abyssal Love, the underlying message of the album is hope. Dreams can come true, including the dream of true love. We can always keep moving forward believing in it, even when we know that pain and sorrow will always try to infiltrate their way into every searching moment for authenticity and lasting happiness. Paola Pellegrini has also just published her first novel "Drink Without Drowning" (Bucchia Editore Publisher 2014): a rock and roll love story focused on the the harder paths in life and finding answers to your deepest ambitions. The book is written in her own personal fast-paced hard rock style. She also published a collection of short stories “Stray Rhythyms in a Broken, Burned Up Lost Sky" (2010 La Riflessione Publishers) which won several literary awards. She also wrote a legal memoir called ”The Repression of Building abuses in criminal and administrative law of the European Court of human rights" (Giappichelli Editore 2012).
