My long-standing obsession with mixing com- pletely different genres produces a sound which reaches those who don’t frequent clubs, and that has always been my goal. It’s nice to see that even children and adults (older than me) listen to my music!”
STAYING HEALTHY ON THE ROAD
Maintaining physical health amidst a demanding career is crucial for De Luca. She and her tour manager
strive to eat healthily, exercise, and
avoid alcohol. They prioritize rest, even if it means sleeping before shows. Reflecting on her past health struggles, De Luca emphasizes the impor- tance of a positive mindset in healing.
“My tour manager and I try to eat healthy, and do some training (at least on Fridays before the evening, because on Saturdays we are zombies). We don’t drink alcohol and try to sleep befo- re shows, even if it’s 8 PM. We rest as much as possible. Regarding the illness I had, the tumor, I have never been one to get discouraged. When I found out, I had surgery and 5 days later I was on a flight to Saudi Arabia; I wouldn’t have cancelled the show. My tour manager gave me the necessary injections! I believe the mind does 80% of the healing work. It’s important not to get discouraged because you need enough energy in your body to fight through difficult moments.”
EVOLVING WELLNESS PRACTICES
As De Luca ages, she becomes more conscious of her physical and mental well-being. She prioriti- zes rest, avoids social media before shows, and ensures she’s well-rested to remain productive and serene.
“With age, I feel tired differently, so I try to not strain my body. I try to rest whenever I can, even just a 40-minute nap. Before shows, I leave my phone on the nightstand, avoiding social media to rest my mind as well as my body. The more rested you are, the more productive and serene you are!”
ADVOCACY AND BALANCING TIME
Balancing her music career with advocacy work, particularly for animal welfare, is deeply personal for De Luca. She manages to find time for impor- tant causes, with assistance from a dedicated team.
