Italian singer-songwriter Damien McFly returns with for those who care — a heartfelt, organic record that blends timeless folk melodies with modern indie energy. Here are five bite-size highlights to dive into.

1) A tribute to people who care
The album is dedicated to anyone who feels compelled to care — for family, friends, their community, or a passion project. As Damien puts it, “If you dedicate even a little of your time to taking care of someone or something, this is for you.”
2) Made at home for an intimate feel
Recorded largely in his living room after lockdown, the album captures a warm, raw immediacy — you can almost hear the world passing by outside in the quiet moments. Drums by Paolo Masiero and bass by Riccardo Loriggiola round out the live, human texture.
3) Standout single: “Years and Years”
A reflective anthem about trust, surprise and disappointment, “Years and Years” centres on the striking hook, “years and years and then?” It lingers long after the last chorus fades.
4) A global road-tested songwriter
With 500+ performances across 15 countries — including SXSW — Damien’s catalogue spans acclaimed tracks like “I Can’t Reply”, “New Start”, “Leap”, and “On Our Own”, earning support from major outlets and international audiences.
5) Less electronics, more honesty
This record leans into stripped-back production and purposeful choices — taking sounds out rather than piling them on — for a clear, emotionally direct listen.
