Sara Dall’Olio is a 17 years old talented singer from Italy. She was a member of the Peppermints, who represented San Marino at the 2014 Junior Eurovision Song Contest in Malta, with the song Breaking My Heart. Sara has recently enjoyed big success at two international music festivals.
Sara won a music award in Malta in April where she was representing Italy. In May she followed this success with another first prize in a festival in Bulgaria. Sara will participate in an international festival in Romania later this year and next year she has big plans and will perform in an important contest in St. Petersburg in Russia and will also return to compete again in the festivals in Malta and Bulgaria.
Sara is no longer a member of the Peppermints and in 2015 recorded a couple of songs by Luca Medri and Alberto Pepoli. One song was a duet with Manuel Zamagni, Insieme a me, and also a solo artist the song Dimenticarmi di te, produced by Angelo Valsiglio. In February of 2016 Sara won an award in Monte Carlo, Monaco for Dimenticarmi di te.
Next up for Sara is a new song that she is working on with Luca Medri and Alberto Pepoli. So Sara is a busy girl and I am sure we will see a lot more of her in the future maybe on the Eurovision stage.
